Phone Link for iOS is now Released in Windows 11

Today, Microsoft is finally releasing Phone Link for iOS in Windows 11.

Phone Link has been available to Android® users for quite some time, bringing instant access on their Windows PC to everything they love on their phone, and as you heard from us in February, Microsoft will continue to deliver a rich experience with new features added as technology becomes available.

With the ability to now make this PC/iOS Phone connection, Microsoft is hoping our Windows 11 customers will never have to worry about missing an important phone call or text while focusing on their Windows PC.  Once enabled by the Windows 11 customer, Phone Link for iOS will offer basic iOS support for calls, messages and access to contacts.  This means if your phone is tucked away during a presentation or focus time, you’ll receive notifications on your Windows PC and can choose which action to take – all on your Windows 11 PC. Need access to your iPhone® photos on your PC? Our iCloud® integration with Photos makes this a simple process – all within the Photos app in Windows 11.

Over the next few weeks, you’ll begin to see this feature become available on your PC.  To begin using it or to check if it’s enabled, simply start with the Search box on your Windows taskbar to find “Phone Link.”  A guided step-by-step installation will walk you through setting it up.
