If you’ve been waiting to get Cortana on your Android or iOS device, then we’re sorry to disappoint but the digital personal assistant will not be leaving Windows Phone platform anytime soon. Marcus Ash, group program manager for Windows Phone at Microsoft, tweeted that the company prioritizes development of Cortana for Windows Phone products around the world. Cortana will reportedly make its way to China and the U.K. in the coming weeks. According to Ash, the company will only consider releasing Cortana to another platform once they’ve met all their objectives for Windows Phone platform are met. It is best you don’t hold out for hope that you’ll hear Cortana’s voice on your iPhone or Android smartphone in the near future.

6. Only after we execute on #1 - #5 do we consider #Cortana anywhere other than Windows devices which are only thoughts/questions, no plans.
