Ratings and Reviews
Beat option out there but still lacking some features
Overall this is definitely the best option for linking your iPhone with your PC to send messages, but there are definitely some caveats that you’ll have to deal with until further support or app development. Group chats don’t work because messages from each group member show up as individual chats. Any messages that you send from your phone don’t show up in the app, and you can only see the other party’s responses, so you either go all in and chat with the app or just use your phone. It’s been convenient for me to use at work to respond here and there throughout my day when I don’t have time to pull out my phone and text. Overall 3.8/5 but I rounded up to give it a 4 since it’s the best I’ve seen so far in terms of usability and security.
Great tool but needs more integration.
Apple’s Link to Windows feature offers a convenient way to receive calls and messages on your PC while working, but it still has room for improvement. While it effectively syncs notifications and allows users to manage basic messaging and calls, the lack of deeper integration limits its full potential.
One major missing feature is the ability to see images within text messages. Without proper media handling, users are forced to check their phones separately, disrupting workflow. Additionally, full screen mirroring—allowing users to interact with their iPhone’s screen directly on their PC—would be a game-changer for productivity, similar to Samsung’s integration with Windows.
Overall, Apple Link to Windows is a useful tool, but it could be much more. Enhanced media sharing and seamless screen mirroring would push it toward the perfect companion for users who want complete phone access on their PC. Hopefully, future updates will bring these much-needed improvements.

I'm not somone who has the delusional blockage that most have always chasing the idea of "Perfect" in this world it's non existent and always will be.. 2nd I'm not a troll that goes around doing my best to downgrade everything or everyone.. i noticed this app only had a 3 star rating which is definitely not even close to the stars it should have.. Everything has always worked on this app as it should and the app is user friendly as they come. If you want to link your device that's exactly what it does without fits and all the other chaos and hording of information behind our backs. The app maintenance is kept up and the apps security is very good. I'm not one for long speeches so keep up the good work and don't let the trolls bother you.. Especially the ones that think there is "Perfect" in this world in life you will fail and you will fail often because no matter how well you do someone will say it's not good enough.. if perfect did exist this is one that would be in the classification"Perfect"
