Windows without walls: Embracing mobile productivity

Windows provides powerful tools that help you bring your information with you wherever you go. By linking your mobile device to your Windows PC, you can access files, notifications, and even make calls directly from your computer. This integration is made possible through the Phone Link app, which connects your Android or iPhone to your Windows PC.

To get started, download the Phone Link app on your mobile device. Open the app and sign in with the same Microsoft account you use on your PC. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the setup. Once connected, you can view and respond to text messages, receive notifications, and access your phone’s photos and apps directly from your Windows PC.

To make the most of Windows on your mobile, consider these key apps:

• OneDrive: Store and sync files across devices.

Keep your data in sync

To ensure your important files and information are always up to date, it’s essential to keep your devices synchronized. Here are some tips to help you achieve seamless synchronization:
