- Google is working on a feature to link your Android devices together when they are signed into the same Google account.
- This could then enable features like call switching between these devices and even internet sharing.
- These features are similar to Continuity features in the Apple ecosystem.
One of the biggest perks of the Apple ecosystem is how well-connected devices are to each other. Apple devices connected with the same Apple ID communicate very well with each other, and you get Continuity features like Handoff, Sidecar, Universal Clipboard, and even call continuity. Google is hoping to score an equalizer in the iOS vs Android debate, as it is working on a feature that will let you link your Android devices together.
As spotted by Nail Sadykov (via Mishaal Rahman), Google could soon let you “link your devices” signed into the same Google account together. This linking will enable features like call switching, allowing you to switch between the linked devices for calls. It could also enable “Internet sharing,” which we presume would be an easier mechanism to set up and use a personal hotspot across your own devices.
