Microsoft Cortana released iOS and Android versions only available in China and the United States

After several months of beta testing, Microsoft's virtual assistant app Cortana has officially landed on Android and iOS platforms. Users can download it from the app stores of their respective platforms starting today. The basic functions of the official version of Cortana are basically the same in major operating systems, such as flight reminders, package tracking, and search queries. However, some advanced functions will vary depending on the openness of the platform.

For example, on the Android platform, users can use the voice command "Hey Cortana" to call the question query function when running an application. In addition, users can also send text message notifications to Windows 10 computers through Cortana. The same function is not available on the iOS platform. At least for now, Apple has not shown any signs of opening the relevant interface on iOS.

The more interesting one is Cyanogen OS, which is a secondary development based on Android. This system has deep integration with Cortana, so users can call out the virtual assistant almost at any time by saying "Hey cortana". Due to the deep integration, Cyanogen also allows users to modify settings including network mode through Cortana, and even complete operations such as shutting down the computer by voice. However, Cyanogen still cannot be compared with Windows, in which Cortana can modify a wider range of system settings.

It is worth noting that the first version of Cortana will only be available to users in the United States and China. Apple users need iOS 8 or above, while Android users need 4.1.2 or above.
