Windows 11 has a built-in app called Phone Link (previously Your Phone) that allows you to connect your Android phone to your laptop. It enables you to access your phone's notifications, messages, photos, and apps directly from your laptop. For Android devices, it also supports limited screen mirroring functionality. Here is how to share mobile screen on Windows 11/10 laptop with Phone Link:
- On your Windows 11 laptop, open the Phone Link app (search for it in the Start menu).
- Select Android and click Link your phone.
- A QR code will appear. On your Android phone, download the Link to Windows app from the Play Store (if you don't already have it).
- Open the app, sign in with your Microsoft account, and scan the QR code to pair your devices.
- Once connected, go to the Phone Link app on your laptop and click Apps. Select the app you want to mirror, and your phone screen will appear on your laptop.
Please note. Phone Link doesn’t mirror your entire Android screen. Instead, it allows you to open and interact with specific apps on your phone from your laptop. Only supported apps (like Instagram, TikTok, or games) can be mirrored, and not all apps are compatible.
