The digital assistant Cortana is another of the novelties that we will see in the system Windows Phone 8.1. Indeed, the new version of the mobile operating system from Microsoft will offer a large number of changes, thanks to which we can really consider it a new version, rather than a regular update. However, the administration will definitely be pleased that this system will be available completely free of charge for all devices with the system Windows Phone 8, so it will also be available for Samsung Ativ S smartphones.
But what does the digital assistant Cortana actually look like? Until now, there have been videos on the Internet depicting her as a blue balloon or a circle with a mouth that moved according to what Cortana said. Not much is known about these videos and it is speculated that the videos were either fakes or from very early versions of the system Windows Phone 8.1 "Blue". But in the latest video we can already see that Cortana will be accessible from the home screen as a full-fledged Modern application. It will also be possible to launch it by holding down the Search button below the screen. Cortana will try to adapt its content to users and therefore, during the initial setup, it will ask them to mark their interests and the things they want to be informed about. Cortana will also offer Do Not Disturb mode, where it will automatically send an information message to the person who called you.
