This tutorial will show you how to send text messages from your phone in the Phone Link app on your Windows 10 or Windows 11 PC.

With the Phone Link app on your PC linked to your iPhone or 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.

You can send, receive, and reply to text messages through your linked phone via the Phone Link app on your PC.

The Phone Link app supports messages sent by Short Message Service (SMS) and Multimedia Messaging Service (MMS) messaging.

You can include emojis, GIFs, and pictures from your PC in text messages.

To minimize network bandwidth and maximize performance, the Phone Link app will only show text messages that you've received or sent within the last 30 days.
