The iOS app is called Link to Windows and in Windows 11 it is called "Phone Link". This has been around for many years, but until May it only worked with Android phones.

However, the only app I can find in the iOS app store is Link to Windows. When I tried setting it up, it told me some app was preventing me from making calls on my Android device… I have nothing Android in my house. Do you have a link to the correct app, and or some hints about getting it set up? My computer shows that I have connected to my phone over Bluetooth… Richard, USA. “Reality is the leading cause of stress for those who are in touch with it.” -- Jane Wagner from The Search for Intelligent Life in the Universe My web site: https://www.turner42.com From: [email protected] <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Sieghard Weitzel Sent: Friday, July 28, 2023 8:52 AM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: “Handoff” between iOS and MS-Windows You need the "PhoneLink" app on a Windows 11 PC and the "Link to Windows" app on your iPhone. PhoneLink should already be on your computer if it's updated to the latest Windows 11 version and Link to Windows of course has to be downloaded from the App Store on your iPhone, it does not work with an iPad (or at least not yet). Here is one article, you find many if you Google it: Phone Link for iOS is now rolling out to all Windows 11 customers<https://blogs.windows.com/windowsexperience/2023/04/26/phone-link-for-ios-is-now-rolling-out-to-all-windows-11-customers/> From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> On Behalf Of Bill Gallik Sent: Friday, July 28, 2023 2:39 AM To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: Re: “Handoff” between iOS and MS-Windows OK, I suppose I could look for this on the web, but seems there’s a couple of folks out here who know all about this PhoneLink. So is this software that Goetz andSo is this software that gets installed on the iPhone or the Windows computer? Or, is there a version on both systems to allow for a handshake? I may as well ask, where can I read up on this? ************ - Sent from Bill's iPhone 8 (iOS 16.6) via Google Mail -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
