Summary

  • Microsoft’s AI assistant, Copilot, now enables users to interact directly with their Android device to perform tasks such as texting and retrieving information via the new Phone Connection feature.
  • At present, this can only be done on a PC, and only if you have an Android phone, as Apple iPhone is not supported yet.
  • The Phone Connection feature requires the Phone Link Windows app (version 1.24112.110.0 or later), and a working Microsoft account.
  • The Phone Connection feature can be used to set timers and alarms, send messages, locate places, and start navigation in map apps, amongst other tasks.
  • Notifications will be sent from the Phone Link app to the Android device to enable the operation to be completed.
