Android Is Finally Getting Its Own Version of Apple’s ‘Handoff’

Love it or hate it, the Apple ecosystem has its perks. Take "Handoff," for example: If you have at least two connected devices, such as an iPhone and a Mac, you can start a task on one and carry it over to the other. You can start reading an article in Safari on your iPhone, then pick it up when you get to your Mac. Or, say you're on a FaceTime call on your Mac, but you have to run; you can simply switch to your iPhone to keep the conversation going, without having to call them back. It isn't perfect, but it works, it works.Android doesn't quite have the same setup. While some functions work across devices, like transferring calls, users with an Android phone often don't have the ability to open the same task on their tablet, and vice versa. If you're reviewing a spreadsheet in Google Shee...

Ranjana Aanjjan Srivastav debuts with film Chand Tara at red carpet

For a theatre actor, adapting to screen acting should be a piece of cake — or so we believe. For Ranjana Aanjjan Srivastav, however, moving to films and OTT after 15 years in theatre was a difficult pill to swallow, until the COVID-induced lockdown pushed her to experiment.
