Android 17 Adds Continue On Feature for Seamless App Handoff Between Devices

Android 17 will introduce a feature called Continue On, allowing seamless transitions of app activities across Android devices, similar to Apple's Handoff. This feature was announced through developer documentation rather than during the I/O 2026 keynote. Initially, Continue On will support handoffs between mobile devices and tablets, with plans for broader compatibility in the future. The feature enables users to resume activities on a nearby device by suggesting the app in the taskbar. It is bidirectional, allowing any compatible device to send and receive activity. Additionally, Continue On can transition from an app to the web version of a service if the app is not installed. The feature will debut with Android 17, which is currently in beta, and the developer documentation is available for implementation ahead of the launch.
