For more information, see Introducing Microsoft Phone Link and Link to Windows. Users can dismiss black screen by pressing the power button, swiping the screen and activating Bixby, as well.įinally, the Your Phone app now also supports RCS messages for Galaxy S20 users and can see when their messages get marked as "Read." Again, only Insider Preview users in the Fast ring can access these features at the moment - those who aren't part of the program will have to wait for their wider release. In addition, the Your Phone Companion app for Android is now called Link to Windows. Microsoft calls it the "black screen" function, and it kicks in the moment a session is initiated and dismisses itself after it ends. In addition, users can now switch off their mobile device's display while using the app's phone screen feature on their PC. Once it's on, they can copy-paste text and images by using the familiar CTRL+C and CTRL+V commands or by tapping and holding the phone's screen.

To activate the feature, a user simply has to toggle it on in Settings.

One of those features is the ability to copy-paste text and images between a phone and PC - for this particular iteration, however, the capability will only work between a Samsung Galaxy S20, 20+, S20 Ultra or Z Flip device and a PC that's running Windows 10 version Apor newer. To delete a photo: Right-click the photo that youd like to delete.

Microsoft is working on at least a couple of big features for Windows 10's Your Phone app, and Insider Preview users will be able to test them out after installing the latest test build.
