The Your Phone app was first shown at the Build developer conference in May 2018, and Insiders got it with the release of Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 17728 Redstone 5 in July 2018. Phone Link replaced the Your Phone app in March 2022, when Microsoft also announced a new user interface for Windows 11 and a simpler way to set it up while installing Windows by scanning a QR code. You can’t send media in a message or reply to a group message with Phone Link. This means that Windows will let you know right away through its alerts.

“Once the guided installation is done, your iPhone is paired with your PC, and the right permissions are given, Phone Link will provide basic iOS support for calls, messages, and contacts,” LeBlanc said.

After the pairing process is done and you’ve given the permissions needed to sync notifications and contacts, you’ll be able to see mobile notifications, keep up with message conversations, and make or take calls from your PC. Next, you’ll be shown how to pair your device by confirming a QR code on your PC’s screen.
