Windows 10: regarding Phone Link and an iPhone

Hello, I have been using Phone Link on my Windows PC and Android phone for years. I just got an iPhone and set it with Phone Link and had a few questions. 1- Do contacts on the iPhone not come over? 2- While reading Troubleshooting for Phone Link in one place it states that only messages sent/rec'd using Phone Link will show, not any from the iPhone....but a bit further down the page it states that only messages sent and rec'd while the iPhone and Phone Link are paired and connected will show....so wondering which is it! Thanks

Hi, I'm Elise, a fellow user like yourself and I'd be happy to help with your issue.

The Phone link with iPhone is very limited compared to with Android unfortunately, the contact won't system. And it will only show messages which are sent/receive while the app is connected.

Please let me know if you need any further assistance.

Kind Regards,

Elise

 

Phone Link with iPhone, currently no Bluetooth

Hi all,

I was very much looking forward using Phone Link now that I got myself to update to Win 11.

Unfortunately, my PC doesn't support Bluetooth. Hence following questions:

Is there...

1. an update coming where iPhone are able to pair via Wifi?
   
2. a possibility to connect the iPhone via USB / Tethering?
   
3. a way to solely receive and write messages via Windows on my iPhone, with no Bluetooth connection required?
   

If all of this is a no, what would be the easiest way to retrofit Bluetooth? Would any 3rd party USB Bluetooth adapter be sufficient? If so, could you suggest/recommend one?

Thank you very much
