Windows 11 Phone Link app: iPhone support arrives

Ana sayfa / Windows

Microsoft has officially rolled out iPhone support for the Windows 11 Phone Link app, enabling iPhone users to connect their devices to Windows 11 computers.

Previously, the Phone Link app features were exclusive to Android users. Now, with this announcement, iPhone users can also access some functionalities. Let’s discuss the details of this update.

Limited features for iPhone users

The company first introduced iPhone support in the Windows Insider program a few months ago, and now it’s available for all Windows 11 users with the stable Patch Tuesday update. The rollout is gradual, and Microsoft expects all supported versions and devices to have access by mid-May.

The Phone Link app allows users to connect their smartphones to their Windows devices wirelessly, providing features like making calls, sending SMS messages, and accessing photos from the phone’s gallery. However, iPhone support offers fewer options compared to Android support.

iPhone users can access their contacts, make calls, receive notifications, and send SMS messages. However, they won’t be able to use group messaging or send images or videos from their PC like Android users can.

Despite these limitations, iPhone users can access their phone’s gallery through the Windows 11 Photos app, as it recently gained integration with iCloud Photos.

To connect your iPhone to your Windows 11 device using the Phone Link app, you can follow the complete guide provided by Microsoft officials.
