More Samsung phones will get “Link to Windows” experience




Samsung’s ‘Link to Windows’ experience has improved Your Phone app-related capabilities on the Note10. Unlike Your Phone, ‘Link to Windows’ allows Note10 to work with any Windows 10 May 2019 Update PC connected to the same WiFi network, and Bluetooth is also not needed.

The Note10 also comes with a dedicated “Link to Windows” setting and a button in the notifications panel.

A report in August revealed that other Samsung phones such as the Galaxy S10 may get built-in “Link to Windows” experience, which is currently exclusive to the Note10 and Note10+.

Today, Samsung confirmed that the “Link to Windows” feature will be rolled out to Galaxy S10, S10+, S10e, and S50+ as part of a software update. The update is available for Samsung Galaxy S10 models in the European markets since September 23, but it’s unclear when the smartphone maker will push the update to customers in the United States.

Link to Windows experience should be also rolled out to other Samsung phones, including the A50 lineup, but it’s not known when the update will be shipped to other phones.

(SOLVED/CLOSED)looking for help with Android phone CONSTANT wireless signal notification

Sorry, that turning off Network Notifications should be there, unless your vendor disabled the advance features.


Should be like this:
Android - Turn off network notification




Android will automatically display a notification when an open Wi-Fi network is available.
To turn off this feature:

• Go to Settings > WiFi.
• Tap on the Menu key > Advanced.
• Uncheck "Network notifications"

What make and model is the phone; and, who is the carrier.

Yeah, thats not a solution she is interested in......I've suggested that course of action. Thanks though.

Just to clarify, I feel that there MUST be a step, or series of steps to turn off JUST the wireless notification sound. Thats what Im driving @ here.
