File Sharing

If you use an Android phone and a Windows PC, Microsoft’s Phone Link is the best way to connect them. It lets you see your phone’s messages, photos, notifications, and more—right from your computer. Now, Microsoft is making that even easier. A new Phone Link panel is coming to the Windows 11 Start menu. What the New Panel Does The panel shows up on the right side of the Start menu. It gives you quick info about your phone, like: Battery level Connection status You’ll also see buttons to jump straight into: Messages Calls Photos This means you can open these parts of Phone Link without needing to open the full app. See Your Recent Activity Below those buttons, there’s a Recent section. It shows your latest: Texts Phone calls Images It doesn’t show notifications directly here, but you can still set them to appear as pop-ups in the bottom-right of your screen. You also won’t see recently used apps here. But you can click the Phone Link icon in the system tray to access them. (Reminder: You can stream some Android apps to your PC using Phone Link, but only on supported phones.) Share Files Easily At the bottom of the panel, there’s a big “Send files” button. Clicking it opens a window where you can: Drag and drop files from your PC Or choose files using File Explorer Next to the button is a small menu with shortcuts to: Open the full Phone Link app Change what shows in the panel Open Start menu settings Rolling Out Now Microsoft is slowly rolling this out to everyone on Windows 11. I got it today on version 26100.4061. If you’re on the stable channel, you may already have it too. This panel was tested with Windows Insiders for months, so it’s great to see it finally coming to more users. Now, checking your phone from your PC is quicker than ever.
