Cortana and REACHit
Microsoft and Lenovo have collaborated to integrate REACHit and Cortana, giving Lenovo users an exclusive, enhanced Windows 10
experience. With REACHit, Cortana becomes even more personal and can do more amazing things for you.
REACHit enables Cortana to know more about your world. If you’re like most users, you have content scattered across a variety of
devices, cloud storage services, and email / calendar providers. With your permission, REACHit makes it possible for Cortana to be
aware of and execute searches against your content wherever it is.
Using Cortana and REACHit is the most natural way to find your content. Can’t recall where a file or email is located, and can’t think
of a good keyword to search for? Not a problem – search by whatever you do remember. Were you with someone when you
looked at the file? Where were you when you worked on it? Just tell Cortana – with REACHit, she’s more contextually aware and
will find it for you.

thought possible
