Handoff is a capability introduced in iOS 8 and OS X v10.10 that is designed to facilitate easy transfer of user activities among multiple devices associated with the same user.

Handoff enables the user to switch from one device to another and continue an ongoing activity seamlessly, without needing to reconfigure each device independently. For example, if a user is browsing a long article in Safari on a Mac, he or she can move to a nearby iOS device that’s signed in to iCloud using the same Apple ID and choose to have the same webpage automatically opened in Safari on iOS, with the same scroll position as on the original device.
