Windows 10: Your Phone app won't reconnect to Android phone

This has happened every time I tried using this app (which I enjoy using when it works fine). I'll setup my phone link to my PC and for that evening, everything works great. I love it. But as soon as I shut down my PC and then go about my business the following day, when I come back home the connection never gets reestablished and the only way to fix it is to completely unlink everything and redo the entire setup procedure, which is NOT fun to me.

Anyone else using this app having this problem? Why are there not better controls over the active link state both in the desktop app and the Android one? All I get is a dumb splash page with an emoji looking guy hugging a PC with no options to try and connect. But hey at least they invested a ton of resources in making these diversity emojis right! What a joke.

Need a cheap android phone

Hey gang, I placed my Mother in law on our phone plan so she will have access to a cell phone. She currently buys those pay as you go deals.

So I'm going to pay for her to have a phone and be on an unlimited plan as a gift for Christmas.

I'm in need of a very cheap android phone. She is 80+ years old and doesn't need anything fancy but she will want to keep up with facebook, text messages, email and maybe a couple of apps. The phone doesn't have to be anything special but I want at least 8GB of on-board memory, a dual or quad core cpu with a minimum of 1gb ram running android. It has to be unlocked GSM so I can add in a sim card. I would prefer something that can do 4G LTE.

I've been all over the web and I have found a lot of phones from unknown china companies and I just don't know what to pick. I'm trying to keep the phone cost under $100 per my Wife's instructions.

I'm currently looking at this RCA phone: RCA 5-Inch Unlocked World Smartphone, Android 4.4, Dual Core, IPS Screen:Amazon

I'm open to any suggestion though. Anyone know of a really cheap but decent android phone?
