Android Devices Lack Apple Continuity-Style Seamless Cross-Device Integration

Android users cannot achieve the seamless phone-to-desktop handoff experience that Apple provides via Continuity, including call routing, SMS mirroring, clipboard sync, and file transfer. Third-party solutions like AirDroid require cloud intermediaries that introduce latency and privacy concerns. This is a platform-level gap affecting the majority of global smartphone users who want desktop productivity integration.
