The giant tech firm said that Swiftkey's most-awaited copy-paste feature has arrived, allowing consumers to transfer data from Android to Windows 10 devices or vice versa.

The new feature is expected to make the experiences of Windows and Android users smoother and easier since they can easily transfer data between smartphones and computers, which is quite difficult to do.

The new capability was already introduced back on Aug. 5. On the other hand, Microsoft hasn't confirmed yet if iOS and macOS consumers could also use it. This means that Apple fans still have to wait for further announcements.

According to Tech Radar's latest report, the Cloud Clipboard was only available in the beta version of the Microsoft Swiftkey app. The company explained that this tool could duplicate text on consumers' smartphones and transfer that data to other Windows gadgets.
