It is now possible to use the Google Now Cortana shortcut to call the virtual assistant.

There are some days, we mentioned the existence of Cortana application for Android , beta tested by Microsoft, which allows you to enjoy some of the features of the Windows virtual assistant (on phones, consoles video game and PC) on a smartphone using the Google OS.
Today, support for Android by Cortana takes another step. Indeed, until now, it was possible to call the Microsoft virtual assistant by launching the application.
But a recent update also lets you use the Google Now normally reserved for shortcut to call Cortana (long press on the smartphone Home button).
However, it is still not possible to call Cortana directly using the formula "Hey, Cortana," especially because of limitations in hardware that keep the virtual assistant constantly listen on the microphone.
After that it is normal that you wondered why we could be interested in using the Windows virtual assistant on Android (and iOS) . The explanation is quite simple: a Windows user 10 who uses his PC Cortana may want to have the same virtual assistant on his smartphone (and there are very high chances that it is not acting for a Lumia) as for it to be truly effective, it must be on all devices.
