Continuity-Like Feature Leaks

[TechmeIN64]

One feature that I have been hoping dearly to come to Windows 10 is something similar to what Apple has with OS X and iOS--the ability to view and respond to texts from your computer. If Microsoft were to enable texting and calling from a computer it would create a lot of synergy between Windows 10 on desktops and phones. So I was curious, have there been any leaks on features like this? I know we don't yet know much about the consumer-y aspects of W10, but I thought (hoped) that maybe I had missed a leak at some point.

Nope nothing as of yet. But texting using the desktop version of OS is one of the demanded features on UserVoice. And i agree, having used it on iOS/Mac, its a really useful feature. The best version of it would be if we could use the laptop/desktop to send messages for all messaging apps on the phone.

I really wish Microsoft did something like tie in Skype and text messaging (like Apple did with iMessage). I might be the only one, but that would be cool and it would make it easy to tie it into the desktop as there are already Skype apps.

This would be great but they need to get message delivery on Skype consistently reliable first

Your not the only one, I converted over from Nexus 4 Kit Kat to WP 8.1 Hangouts is killer feature that needs to be replicated on windows devices. SMS Messages and Instant messages should be integrated or at least an option to integrate them

I definitely think this would be a great feature as well for Microsoft's ecosystem.

I want that feature so bad... I really hope Microsoft gonna do something like iMessage. When I use my mac I use it even if I don't have an iPhone.
