A GOOD thing.But I don;t see any

  2. TechPowerUp App with Windows 8.1 Phone?

    Is there any chance of an official TechPowerUp App for Windows 8.1 Phone like Android? I miss having one for my phone now that I have a Windows Phone now. Instead of having to pin the site to my main menu.

    Or do you @W1zzard have any objections if a TPU user wanted to make one, if you decide not too?

    You can tap into the power of Your Phone app with Link to Windows integration on select Surface Duo and Samsung devices to instantly access your Android phones mobile apps directly from your Windows 10 PC.

    With Your Phone apps, you can instantly access the Android apps installed on your mobile device right on your PC. Using a Wi-Fi connection, Apps allows you to browse, play, order, chat, and more all while using your PCs larger screen and keyboard. You can add your Android apps as favorites on your PC, pin them to your Start menu and taskbar, and open them in separate windows to use side-by-side with apps on your PC helping you stay productive.

    Apps from your Android phone are not installed on your PC.

    Apps you pin and/or open on your PC will be running from your Android device. Your Android device needs to be on and connected to the same Wi-Fi network in order for this to work. The Your Phone app is connecting and mirroring apps to your PC from your Android phone. You need to connect (link) your Android phone to your PC via the Your Phone app in order to use this experience.


    This tutorial will show you how to pin Android phone apps to the Start menu on your Windows 10 PC using the Your Phone app.
