Without its own smartphone OS, MSFT this time focuses on its Android Launcher and new ‘Your Phone’ experience

On Android, the company's Trojan Horse has long been the MSFT Launcher, which is getting support for the Windows Timeline feature. The other cornerstone of this approach is the Edge browser, which going to soon become the house of Timeline on iOS, where MSFT can't offer a launcher-like experience. On Android, the MSFT Launcher going to soon support Timeline for cross-device application launching. I'd be surprised if MSFT didn't decide to launch a stand-alone Timeline application at some point in the future. Going forward, we'll likely see MSFT embrace a wider range of these experiences as it looks to extend its reach into third-party platforms like Android.
