I cannot connect my iPhone to Phone Link as it wants android.

I had a Galaxy S8 connected to Phone Link in the past and now I have an iPhone which I want to connect. I've downloaded the Link to Windows app on my phone and scanned the QR code that was displayed on my laptop, after, it said that an error occurred because it was a QR code to link an android device. There are no options to change to iPhone that I've found. Any suggestions?

Hi, Goldie.

I'm Jen. I'm an independent advisor and would happily help you figure this out.

I understand you want to remove the Android phone from the Phone Link app and replace it with an iPhone. You can remove the Android device by following the steps in the link below.

However, before you link the iOS device, I suggest checking the system requirements for the app in this link.

I hope this helps. Feel free to share how it went.

Kind regards.

 

Phone Link on Android

No. I link my phone to my computer with MyPhoneExplorer and have done so for a decade with different computers & different phones. MyPhoneExplorer links Windows computers and Android phones reliably - TenForums Best of luck, Denis
