TL;DR
Google has introduced a new Android 17 feature called “Continue On” that lets users move apps between Android devices and continue where they left off.
The feature will initially support phone-to-tablet handoffs, with app suggestions appearing directly in the tablet taskbar.
Continue On is part of Google’s broader push to improve Android’s cross-device ecosystem and better compete with Apple’s continuity features.
Google made a ton of new announcements at I/O 2026, but Gemini and its AI ambitions clearly overshadowed Android. Still, on the sidelines of I/O, Google announced an extremely useful and important new feature coming to Android 17.
