‘Xiao Na’ app coming to China
Print Edition
MICROSOFT is spreading its Cortana digital assistant abroad, starting with China and the UK.
The company’s corporate vice president of operating systems, Joe Belfiore, said in Beijing that Chinese and British users of Windows Phones will get the voice-recognizing app in an update to Windows Phone 8.1. It will begin rolling out to developers next week and to users in the coming months.
In China, the app nicknamed “Xiao Na,” will speak Mandarin and include locally relevant information, like air quality reports in weather updates and information on TV shows and celebrities.
In Britain, users will get an app that has a British accent and be up to date about English Premier League soccer and other local matters.
Users in Australia, Canada and India will also be allowed to use a version of Cortana.
