Linking Windows with Android: So Many Benefits, Why Not Give It a Try?Are you using a Windows laptop and an Android smartphone without tapping into their seamless connection? Or are you aware but doubtful of its benefits? You might regret not exploring it sooner. Connecting Windows with Android opens up a world of possibilities! Let's delve into the details with 24h Technology below.
Why Do We Need the Link Between Windows and Android?
As of January 2023, Windows commands a staggering 74% of the entire PC/laptop operating system market, while Android holds 71.8%. The dominance of these two operating systems in the market is evident.
Based on the significant market share, it's safe to say that a considerable number of Windows users also own an Android smartphone.
Hence, to ensure seamless and continuous usage, connecting your Windows laptop and Android smartphone is essential for users' needs.
If you think this isn't necessary and you can use the two devices independently, you're only half right. Independence is a characteristic, but not being dependent is the essence of 'mobile' or 'portable' in the names of mobile phones and laptops. However, that doesn't mean we should reject the possibility of linking them.
You can seamlessly continue browsing on your laptop using your smartphone. Or answer messages and calls on your laptop when your smartphone isn't with you at the moment. You can even copy text on your smartphone and paste it into your laptop's word processor effortlessly.
Want to show your friends the latest photos on your smartphone while chatting with them on your laptop? You can easily do so by leveraging Windows linking capabilities through the Your Phone app (available on Google Store). For Samsung smartphone users, Galaxy devices come integrated with this feature right out of the box.
What Can You Do with Windows Linking?
You can receive notifications, messages, or answer calls right on your laptop. There are times when we aren't ready to use our phones, so being able to perform quick actions directly on the laptop is truly fantastic, isn't it?
Windows linking not only facilitates communication tasks and notifications but also enables us to use the phone on the laptop. This means you can operate your phone's screen like a window on your laptop screen and perform almost every function a phone can do. From scrolling Tiktok, Tinder, to gaming, everything is possible.
My favorite part is being able to seamlessly share the webpage you're browsing on your smartphone to your laptop. With just a few clicks, you can continue reading news, checking updates, or filling in information on the desktop interface.
You can also check and send photos from your album on your device to various social media platforms or any apps with convenient copy-paste actions. Given its benefits and convenience, this feature is something you shouldn't overlook if you own a Windows laptop and an Android smartphone.
Despite its convenience, there are still areas for improvement
One of the weaknesses of Windows linking is that both the laptop and the phone need to connect to the same Wi-Fi network or the laptop must use the Wi-Fi hotspot provided by the smartphone. This can be inconvenient in many unavoidable situations, and the connection may sometimes be unstable.
If you use the feature of using your smartphone on your laptop, you need to be prepared that this may make your smartphone more active, using multiple access connections and draining battery power, causing overheating. However, recent updates have been able to make this feature more stable.
It will take a while longer for Windows linking to reach the smoothness of MacOS - iOS integration. However, there is great promise, especially with many Android manufacturers venturing into the computer realm, exemplified by Samsung.
