Is the End Nigh for Cortana?
So is the Alexa PC app the end of Cortana? Well, the two are quite compatible as they have been allowed to work well together. That might suggest that the end is nigh for Cortana.

What isn’t speculation is that the Alexa PC app is available in the Microsoft Store, so go download it today. Have you got any Echo devices and have you downloaded the Alexa PC app yet? If you have, what were your results? Is the PC app everything you hoped it would be, or another disappointing effort? Let us know in the comments below. RELATED POSTS TO CHECK OUT:
