Reports have said that Microsoft is preparing a new feature for Windows 10. This will let Android users view their notifications from the desktop. They will also be able to respond to text messages from their desktops. The announcement was made at the company`s developer conference Build 2016. 

The Microsoft Cortana virtual assistant app for Android will now be able to communicate directly with Windows 10. It will relay notifications such as missed calls, text messages and the like. Users will also be able to reply to text messages from the desktop. The reply will be relayed back to the phone and sent from there. 

Apple already offers a similar feature. The iPhone enables the user to send and respond to text messages from the Mac`s Messages app.
