I do hope this will be an application that needs to be installed in windows 10 and not build in into windows 10. Although, it is mentioned that Cortana is used. Cortana will have the ability to push android notifications to windows 10. I do hope that this is all available as an option or it could be that windows 10 becomes very intrusive and annoying.
I guess there needs to be an android app installed as well on the android phone.

Windows 10 might become hackers delight i guess..

I suppose that we'll have to wait for the anniversary update, Redstone 1, to see this feature. Between my pc, smartwatch and phone notifications should be interesting.

Looks cool. I like how notifications will sync. If you clear them on PC, you won't turn to your phone and find it clogged with all those notifications anymore.

I have got to give credit to the new leadership at MS, they really have turned things around from Gates & Balmer.

It is syncing with Cortana. You need Cortana installed on your phone logged into the same account as your PC. Shouldn't need to do anything else on the PC, but will have to wait and see.

This is not possible in iOS since Apple won't let 3rd party integrate deeply into the OS.

Another reason to install Cortana. Microsoft really keeps things up and running, although I don't really understand why MS isn't giving a good chance to Windows Phone.
