Windows 10 already shows your Android notifications, how to activate it?

Microsoft had to withdraw from the smartphone industry after the failure of Windows Phone; but they did the right thing approaching Android through apps. With your Phone, Android users have an application that allows us to see the notifications of the device directly on the desktop of the computer. We can, for example, see the new messages of WhatsApp, Messenger, Instagram or Twitter among others.

And the key in your Phone is that the synchronization between the smartphone and the computer is complete. That is, the Interacciones With notifications, if we carry them out on the computer, they will be reflected on the mobile, and vice versa. Thus, if we discard a WhatsApp notification on our computer with Windows 10 operating system, for example, it will also be discarded directly on the smartphone. And there are many other functions to be introduced, but in which Microsoft is working, such as the option to reply to notifications directly from the computer.

How to see in Windows 10 all the notifications that arrive on your Android mobile

The Your Phone application, in the Google Play Store you will find it as 'Companion of your phone'. To configure it, once downloaded, enter your email from Microsoft -the same as on the PC- and the password and open the application on the PC Your telephone. It allows the connection on the smartphone, and that's it. The device is automatically detected and you will have available the sections of Photos, Messages and Notifications.

For this, on the computer you have to have Windows 10 April 2018 Update or a later version of the operating system. You may have to grant permissions for some of the functions, but the whole process is guided in the application and the reason for each permission requested on the device is perfectly explained. Notifications can be reviewed manually on the PC, but they will also appear directly, and automatically, as soon as they reach our device. And all this, with the functions and the native notification interface of the Windows 10 operating system.

Previously there were applications that allowed you to do this on Android devices, but the key in Your Phone is that the integration is carried out natively with the Windows 10 notification system. And the next functions, such as the possibility of respond to notifications from the computer, they will arrive automatically as promised from Microsoft.
