I can't browse files on my iPhone X from my Windows 10 desktop through Bluetooth. There are band-aids and work arounds through apps and services. My point is that this should be a natural integration by now, not a pile of band-aids. On Android+Linux, KDE Connect is a single solution to do all of this. Files, clipboards, bidirectional music/volume control, pausing computer music during phone calls, notifications, SMS (desktop app), type from computer onto phone, and more. I've heard there's some work going on to make it work on Windows+Android, and for Linux there's already a KDE Connect applet to make it work on desktop environments other than KDE.
