This tutorial will show you how to turn on or off showing notifications from the Phone Link app for your Android phone for your account 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 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 phone.
Once you’ve started receiving notifications, you can choose which apps you’d like to see notifications from.
