This tutorial will show you how to turn on or off notifications for all Android phone apps in the Phone Link app for your account in Windows 10 or Windows 11.

With the Phone Link app on your PC linked to your Android phone, you can view and manage your Android device notifications on your PC.

After you provide permission on your Android or iPhone phone, notifications from your phone will appear on your PC.

Some notifications will have additional actions available for you, like replying directly to messages or snoozing an alarm. Any notifications that you delete on your PC will also be deleted on your Android device.

Once you’ve started receiving notifications, you can choose which apps you’d like to see notifications from.

Hello, :alien:

You can use either option. Both are just different ways to change the same setting.
