This tutorial will show you how to turn on or off showing audio currently playing from your Android 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 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.

The Phone Link app on your PC allows you to listen to and interact with your favorite audio player apps on your Android phone directly with an audio player inside the Phone Link menu pane.

From this audio player, you can select Previous, Play/Pause, and Next track.

If you would like to listen to audio from a different source, you can start playing that from your Android device and it will automatically switch in the Phone Link player. Use the dropdown to switch between two or more sources of audio as much as you’d like directly from the app.

Reference:

For any audio app on your Android phone device that you want to control from the Phone Link app on your PC, make sure the individual app’s notifications are turned on. To do this, go to Settings > Apps > Select the audio app > Notifications, and turn on Allow notifications.
