Android Phones Are Stealing This Feature IPhones Have Had Forever
One of Apple's main selling points is durability, not the rugged look of the hardware (although that doesn't hurt), but the features that bring the company's hardware together to easily share your files and data. . It has features like Universal Clipboard, Sidecar, Handoff and AirDrop. Sharing everything from videos to documents has been a seamless experience on Apple devices for nearly a decade.
Google's Android devices offer plenty of this feature, and many manufacturers have adopted their own versions, but so far none of the unified apps or features have matched Apple's robustness...according to a ZDNet report, though it wasn't officially announced before that either. time. Google is working on a similar feature that will allow users to seamlessly manage all their Android devices.
Just like Apple, new Android features like Continuity connect your different devices, allowing you to share different photos, videos and files. However, the rumors could strengthen Apple. Android users are rumored to be able to transfer calls from one device to another regardless of manufacturer. So, imagine making calls on a Samsung phone and transferring them to a Lenovo tablet, which will be especially useful for those who don't want to be tied to a hardware manufacturer.
The new feature will allow users to share Internet connections. Users may need to have a Google Account and sign in on their Android device, but if you're using an Android device, chances are you're already using Google services. The new feature will connect devices via Bluetooth, which is pretty standard. It's supposed to be able to handle phone-to-phone transfers, which is pretty unique, but again, that feature isn't available yet, so we'll have to see if it works.
While there is no exact timeline to predict the launch of this new feature, a few leaked images like the one above confirm the rumors and suggest that it may not be too far off. The user in the image can access the new feature via the Settings menu under Connect Device. As you can see, call forwarding can be enabled or disabled.
For those who own multiple Android phones (which is a somewhat unusual situation), being able to transfer calls from one to another can be very useful and nice for iPhone users who can't. It is the apple of the eye.
