Googlebook's best feature doesn't work with Samsung phones yet

Googlebook laptops, which are designed to work seamlessly with Android devices, currently have a key feature that doesn't work with Samsung phones. This feature, called "Better Together", allows for cross-device integration, but it is not compatible with Samsung phones. According to Android Authority, Google has confirmed that support for Samsung phones compatible with Android 17 is coming in a few weeks.

The Googlebook laptops are priced between $900 and $1,300 and are now available for purchase. However, Samsung users may want to wait until the cross-device features are functional. The laptops' integration with Android devices is a main selling point, but this limitation may affect its appeal to Samsung phone users.

The issue was reported by multiple outlets, including Android Police and Android Authority, which noted that Googlebook's integration with Android devices does not currently work with Samsung phones, the largest Android smartphone manufacturer.
