No blue chat bubbles, no group texts, no images.
Microsoft on Tuesday made a major announcement that will help iPhone users who also use a Windows PC as their main computer. The latest beta of the company’s Phone Link app on Windows 11 will let users access iMessage on the iPhone and perform basic chat functions.
Microsoft provides details on how it will work in its Windows Insider Blog. The Phone Link app, which previously used Bluetooth to connect only to Android phones, will have a new option for the iPhone. Once a connection is established and the setup is performed, users will have basic support for accessing contacts, making calls, and using the iPhone’s Messages for text conversations.
However, the support for Messages does not go much beyond one-on-one interactions.
