I have a Surface Pro 4 I7 8GB. Its been great. Was wondering what people use Cortana for?

Welcome to the forum

Since the SPs have a microphone you can use it like you would Google or Siri. Either local searches or on the Internet.

I use her to track appointments, including when I need to leave to make it on time. Track flights, search for my content, search the web, etc..

Siri Cortana gives me weather, sports scores, tracks my packages, flights, and launches apps (say "start ...")

To be honest I don't really use her on the surface but I do find her very good on my phone. Great for reminders the voice recognition is pretty good.

Siri or Cortana?

I like that Cortana has a sense of humour and is also relatively friendly to Siri.

Cortana likes Siri. Apparently, feelings not mutual. | Microsoft Surface Forums

I have been using it mostly for regular web searches. It works really well and saves me a lot of typing when sitting on the couch. The SP4 is the best computer I have ever owned.
