best browser/extention for handoff

#1 Post by Whitieiii » Fri Feb 24, 2017 11:34 pm

looking for a browser or extension that offers handoff between all Windows, Mac, iPhone and Android... just want to press a button and it shows exactly on the device I'm handing it to from the original device.... my Mac and iPhone can do this natively but can't do it yet to and from Windows and Android..... who has any suggestions? this would be nice if I need to go to the other computer in the bedroom or if I just want to use my phone on the couch or if I need to see on a bigger screen

Handoff is a feature exclusive to Apple devices IMO.
If it's just the browser, maybe Firefox Sync?

Cats are rather jumpy animals, try it with a dog instead...
