Windows Phone link is cool

I’ve been using Windows Phone Link for a while now. Only recently did I dedicate the time to get it fully operational! I now wish I had done this earlier.

Bringing my mobile phone functionality onto my desktop is a huge productivity bonus I am now finding. My favourite feature that I only recently discovered is that I can make and receive phone calls via my desktop. Huge!

Not only can you make and receive phone calls you can also view your text messages. How many times have I needed to copy and paste something between a PC and my phone? Typically, I’d use email but now I don’t need to do that since all the functionality is available to me on a device with a full keyboard that I can use with my fat fingers. Means I don’t have to change devices to deal with what comes in on the phone.

Windows Phone Link has some requirements, most obvious is that it only works with Windows 11. You’ll also need to use Bluetooth to pair the devices. It’ll also work with iPhones and Android devices. Android has a little more functionality at this stage it seems but I use it with an iPhone and now wouldn’t be without it.

If you haven’t checked out Microsoft Phone Link then I suggest you do because it has been a great productivity booster for me.
