Microsoft continues to work on its virtual assistant Cortana to improve its capabilities, in recent months integration has been achieved with Outlook Mobile and with the Microsoft launcher for Android. The next step would be to add the ability to read text messages out loud on Android.

Cortana will allow you to read the SMS very soon

This new step would represent an improvement in the integration of the application with SMS. Currently, Cortana already allows Android users to interact with texts on their PCs, but this new feature would take it one step further. The new function would allow users to listen to messages in a very simple way and using only the voice while driving, for example. In terms of parity on mobile platforms, Cortana is unable to read SMS messages on iOS due to Apple restrictions.

This new SMS-related feature is available only in the beta version of the Cortana app at this time, but the new capability is expected to roll out to all users in the coming months.

Microsoft is doing an excellent job with Cortana by gradually improving the capabilities of this virtual assistant, which has been with us for several years, although at first it was exclusive to Windows platforms.
