Indian OnePlus One users can now get the Cortana update for Cyanogen

Cyanogen has begun rolling out an update for OnePlus One users in India, bringing in functionality from Cortana, Microsoft’s digital assistant.

Indian OnePlus One users running Cyanogen Os 13.1, can receive the OTA update as soon as they connect the phone to Wi-Fi. Unlike on other platforms, Cortana has been deeply integrated into the Cyanogen OS, so users can take full advantage of the voice commands available.

Cortana was first brought to OnePlus One users in the US and China last year, on Cyanogen OS 12.1. This is the assistant’s first entry into India on the Cyanogen platform. The company said in a blog post,   "We're happy to announce that we're launching Cortana in India on Cyanogen OS first. OnePlus One owners running 13.1 in India can now take advantage of all of the awesome features available from Cortana.”

Aside from voice commands for quick actions like turning on and off your Wi-Fi, doing a search, or setting an alarm, Cortana on Cyanogen also has some additional camera and lock screen commands. Users can now talk to Cortana to click a photo or open a search right from the lock screen.
