Well, same notion is kinda followed up with Windows 10, now it being Universal OS operating on " Universal apps " ( Apps those fit in automatically, no matter which device you choose, regardless you're on windows) These things were mostly showcased at Build 2015, Microsoft's Developer Conference ! Well, since the release of Cortana, A digital Personal assistant for windows 10 equipped PC's and tablet devices is out, things have been to a next level, as Cortana App will be soon available on Android & iPhone.
Also, yesterday at E3, Microsoft gave us an update regarding the beta's, that would be available for Android devices starting this July. But the major announcement leaving the game part at E3 was that, Cortana would be coming to Xbox One this fall in US & UK. Cortana will save all your profile data and sync it across devices, through its Notebook, now she'll find trending games, new challengers & friends on Xbox Live. So now you'll know on the fly whether your friend sent you a request or any update on any game, regardless of Any Device you work on may that be your iPhone, Windows or Android !
