How to Mirror Pixel Phone to PC on Windows 11/10?

If you want to mirror Pixel phone to PC for some good ol' screen sharing or just to use your phone apps on a bigger screen, there are a few ways to do it. Here’s how I usually go about it:

1. Use Scrcpy (My Go-To Tool)

Honestly, Scrcpy is the bomb if you want to mirror Pixel phone to PC without any hitches. It's free and open-source, plus it doesn’t require any special setup other than ADB (Android Debug Bridge) to be enabled.

Download Scrcpy: Head to GitHub to get the latest version. Just grab the zip file for your operating system (Windows, macOS, or Linux).
Set up ADB: Make sure you have ADB installed. If you're not sure how, you can download the platform-tools from the Android Developers site. Just unzip it and keep it handy.

2. Use Windows Your Phone App

If you’re using Windows 10 or 11, the Your Phone App is pretty neat. It allows you to access your notifications, messages, and photos right on your PC.

Install Your Phone Companion: Download the Your Phone Companion app on your Pixel from the Google Play Store.
Set Up Your PC: Open the Your Phone app on your Windows PC and follow the setup prompts. You'll need to log in with the same Microsoft account.
Link Your Devices: Follow the on-screen instructions so your phone gets connected to your PC. Then mirror Pixel phone to PC.

It does a lot more than just mirroring; you can reply to texts, access photos, and even make calls, which is pretty handy.
