Google will require only apps with verified identities to be installable on certified Android devices starting in October, with early access testing for developers. The streamlined Android Developer Console will be available by March 2026, and the feature will launch in Brazil, Indonesia, Singapore, and Thailand by September 2026. A broader global rollout is uncertain, with potential expansion in 2027. This change is partly in response to an antitrust case and will necessitate the distribution of third-party app stores and rehosting of Play Store content on alternative platforms. The enforcement of an installation whitelist could enhance security but may also give Google more control over the app market. Documentation on the consequences of installing non-verified apps and verification processes is currently limited.

Microsoft is testing a new feature in Windows 11 that allows users to resume Android apps directly on their PC, currently limited to Spotify. When a user is listening to music on their Android phone and sits at their desk, a notification will prompt them to "Continue on this PC," opening Spotify on their computer at the same point. This feature aims to enhance device continuity, similar to Apple's Handoff, and could eventually extend to productivity apps, browsers, and messaging tools. Currently, it is available only to Windows Insiders in the Dev and Beta Channels, and Microsoft has not specified which additional apps will be included in the future.
