Microsoft is preparing to launch an enhanced Copilot integration for select Android devices, promising greater continuity between mobile and Windows 11 PCs. This feature, dubbed "Cross-Device Resume," builds on earlier testing and is now available to Windows Insiders in the Release Preview channel.
Users with devices from brands such as Samsung, Xiaomi, Honor, Oppo, and Vivo will benefit from the ability to resume activities across devices. This includes continuing work on Microsoft Office documents like Word, Excel, and PowerPoint, as well as picking up web browsing sessions exactly where they left off on their Android phone directly on their Windows 11 computer.
The functionality extends to opening cloud-stored files directly from the Copilot mobile app on a Windows 11 PC. While currently in preview for specific Insider builds, Microsoft has not yet announced an official public release date for all Windows 11 users.
