Sending text from pc

You can use the Your Phone app. I do it all the time *Wink

• Link Android Phone to Windows 10 PC
• Send Text Messages from Android Phone in Your Phone app on Windows 10

Obviously "free" is dependent on your service agreement with your carrier.

Just something to consider *Wink

Err... I see Brink beat me to it *Biggrin

 

Can Cortana on a PC send a text through my iPhone?

When I ask Cortana to send a text, she says something like, "I'll send that using your phone. It may take a minute depending on connectivity." However, the recipient (me, during testing) never receives the text.

Can Cortana on a PC send a text through an iPhone? My iPhone is connected to my PC using Bluetooth. I don't have Cortana installed on my phone (but I haven't seen anything that says this is reburied and i'd prefer Siri on my phone).

Thanks.

Hi DianeFrigon,

You may want to answer these questions to get more clarity on this issue:

1. Are you getting any error message?
   
2. Have you made any changes to the computer prior to the issue?
   
3. Did you try paring Android mobile to PC?
   

I suggest you to follow the below steps and check if it helps.

Step 1:

Turn on Bluetooth on your iPhone which you link to pair on Windows PC.

Note: Turn on Bluetooth on iPhone, tap settings, tap Bluetooth, and then turn on Bluetooth.

1. Open settings on Windows 10 PC
   
2. Select Devices and select Bluetooth
   
3. Below Manage Bluetooth devices select, turn on the Bluetooth option.
   
   
4. Windows 10 will start searching for Bluetooth devices, in few seconds, your IPhone name will appear in manage Bluetooth devices sections.
   
5. Click on pair button
   
6. It will prompt for the passcode on Windows 10 PC
   
7. Check whether passcode is appearing on your IPhone
   
8. Click Yes button on your PC, and then tap pair option on your IPhone to pair with Windows 10 PC via Bluetooth.
   

Hope it helps
