This tutorial will show you how to change the ringer mode on your Android mobile device from your Windows 10 and Windows 11 PC.

With the Phone Link app on your PC linked to your Android phone, you can instantly access the Android apps installed on your mobile device right on your Windows 10 or Windows 11 PC. Using a Wi-Fi connection, Apps allows you to browse, play, order, chat, and more — all while using your PC’s larger screen and keyboard.

If supported by your Android phone, you can directly change the ringer mode on your Android phone on demand using the settings below in the Phone Link app on your PC.
  • Volume on = Sound is turned on and vibrate mode is turned off for the mobile device.
  • Volume off (silent) = Sound is muted and vibrate mode is turned off for the mobile device.
  • Vibrate mode = Sound is muted and vibrate mode is turned on for the mobile device.

Shouldn't you mention that this only works for certain android devices? Unfortunately my Moto doesn't have this capability as well as some others.
