How to cast my Android phone to PC in Windows 11?
Casting Android phone to a Windows 11 PC can enhance your viewing experience, allowing you to interact with apps, stream videos, and share content easily. Here are several reliable methods to do this, focusing on simplicity and effectiveness. Windows 11 comes with a built-in application called Phone Link (formerly Your Phone) that allows you to cast Android phone to PC. Here’s how to set it up:
1. Install Phone Link on Your PC:
- Ensure your Windows 11 PC is updated.
- Search for Phone Link in the Start menu and open it.
2. Setup on Android:
- On your Android phone, download and install the Link to Windows app from the Google Play Store (if it’s not pre-installed).
- Open the app and sign in with your Microsoft account.
3. Connect Your Devices:
- Follow the prompts in the Phone Link app on your PC. This may include scanning a QR code or entering a code displayed on your PC.
- Make sure both your PC and Android phone are on the same Wi-Fi network for this to work seamlessly.
4. Grant Permissions:
- You'll be prompted to grant various permissions on your phone (for calls, messages, and notifications). Allow these to enable full functionality.
5. Start Casting:
- Once set up, you can view notifications, messages, calls, and even use mobile apps directly on your PC.
this is not a screen casting, this is a cheap link that only allow basic stuffs like seeing messages, calls or photos, what a waste of time...

Not true, with this link you can also view and operate the whole spartphone screen on your computer/laptop. Works great.

Nice reply, "Works great!" then silence. Real helpful. HOW did you get it to work? Does it still work?
