The phone link feature on a windows 11 PC enables you to cast android phone

Microsoft phone link, formerly your phone, is the most integrated and stable solution to pairing your windows 11 PC with your Android phone in a near seamless and stable format and could also be paired with windows 11 tablets and surfaces. With it, you may manage notifications, compose texts, make/receive calls, view pictures and project your phone display on your computer itself, provided you were so fortunate to have a compatible phone.

Step-by-Step Guide:

In your PC open Phone Link: The way it works is that in search (Start Menu or taskbar search box) of your Windows 11 PC, open the app and search Phone Link. It would usually be installed automatically.

Sign In: Touch Android: Android has to be clicked on the Phone Link app.

It will require you to key in your Microsoft log in. Ensure that you also use this Microsoft id in your PC and your Android phone.

On your android Phone: Install/Open Link to windows:

Get that Android mobile phone and by then open - aka.ms/ YOURPC in a browser. This will be redirecting you to download the windows companion app or open windows companion: Windows link.

The Link to Windows may be already ready to go on many newer Samsung, Microsoft Duo, and HONOR phones, and can be found in your Quick Settings panel (swiped down at the upper end of the screen).

Connect your Devices (QR Code or try Manually):

Wi-Fi Pairing (Recommended) Scan using QR Code Tap using QR Code On your PC the tap/scan option choose Pair with QR code. Your screen would have a QR code. With your android phone, scan the QR to your computer using the camera on the app (link to windows) and NOT the one built into your phone.

Manual Pairing: In case you do not want to do it with the help of a QR code, choose the option of Pairing manually on your PC. You will receive a code that you will have to enter into the app driven titled, the Link to Windows on your Android phone.

Give Access to Android Phone:

After connecting, your Android device will prompt several permissions (e.g. permission to access notifications, photos, calls). Allow these to allow the full Phone Link work with your PC.

Activate Screen mirroring (Phone screen):

Once you are able to connect successfully, on your PC an icon in the Phone Link app should show a mini version of your phone screen, or an icon called phone screen or apps.

By hitting this option especially, the option of phone screen the mirroring will begin. A new window upon your Windows 11 desktop will be an emission of your Android phone screen.

Important Note: The Phone screen is a way to get a mirror stage of your phone display. As well the same screen of your phone can be directly open on your PC.  This mode is mainly limited to Android and a selection of devices is currently supported, including the Samsung Galaxy range, Microsoft Duo, some HONOR, ROG Phone, vivo, and Xiaomi. Otherwise, such functions as notifications, messages, and photos will all be functional even in case your phone does not fit the list.

Smooth Native Microsoft: It is native Microsoft that offers the most seamless integrating of Android and Windows 11.

Centralized Management: Makes and receives calls, text, notifications and photo on your PC to remove diversion.

And see how you take to it and mention me how it works with you.

Easy Cast: If the device is one of the compatible ones, you have a direct interactive mirror of your phone screen to create a better viewing experience without the use of third-party apps or involved processes.

Wireless Convenience: The device connection is accomplished most commonly by Wi-Fi (both devices being on the same network) or Bluetooth, a wireless casting device.

This will give you a strong yet easy way to cast your android phone to your Windows 11 PC, perhaps when your Android phone has full screen mirroring option. Here you may taste it, and how it fares with you tell me.

I have done this on a Windows 10 PC with Chrome. Here is how to do this:

1. Install the Vysor Chrome extension from the Chrome Web Store.
2. Use a USB cable to connect your Android phone to your computer.

3. Enable USB debugging on your phone (found in Developer Options).
4. Open the Vysor app from the Chrome browser. It should detect your device. Click on View to start mirroring.

Additional Tips for Casting Android to PC in Windows 10 PC:

• USB Debugging: To turn on USB Debugging, go to Settings > About Phone, tap on Build Number multiple times to unlock Developer Options, then go back to Settings > Developer Options and enable USB Debugging.
• Quality: For better performance and quality, ensure both devices are on the same Wi-Fi network and have a strong connection.
• Firewall: If connection issues occur, check your firewall settings on Windows to ensure that it allows the apps you are using.

Quick steps to cast your Android phone to PC:

1. Open the Connect App on Windows 11: Search for “Connect” in the Start menu and fire it up.
2. On Your Android Device: Go to the settings where you can find “Screen Cast” or “Smart View”.
3. Connect: Your PC should show up in the list of available devices. Select it, and you should be good to go!
4. Adjust Settings: Once connected, feel free to tweak the resolution settings if it looks off.
5. Grant Permissions: If prompted, don’t forget to hit “Allow” on your phone.

If you hit a wall while connecting, sometimes a good old restart will fix random glitches.  Sometimes, your PC’s firewall settings can block connections. Make sure to allow the Connect app through your firewall if you’re having issues. If nothing seems to work, check Windows’ built-in troubleshooter. Head to Settings > Update & Security > Troubleshoot and see if it finds anything.

Casting your Android phone to a PC running Windows 11 can be a great way to share your screen or watch videos on a bigger display, you gotta make sure you’re using the right apps for the job. Windows 11 has built-in support for casting, but not every Android app plays nicely with it. I recommend using the “Connect” app that comes with Windows 11—it’s usually pretty reliable.

Sometimes the resolution between devices can get wonky. If your phone's screen looks stretched or tiny on your PC, you might want to adjust the display settings on your PC or within the casting app. Some apps allow you to change the resolution settings, so check for that.
