Starting today, Android phones supporting Your Phone app’s Phone screen feature will be able to preview the Apps feature. Microsoft announced the move while simultaneously teasing that you’ll be able to run multiple Android apps at the same when the Your Phone app gets updated later this year. Here’s hoping that we see a wider rollout to non-Galaxy device in the coming months as the feature looks really interesting! You’ll also need to have your device on the same Wi-Fi network and running Android 9.0 or higher with Link to Windows integration - at present that “officially” only means selected Samsung Galaxy hardware listed below.

However, Microsoft has stated that you can get the features working so long as you have a PC running Windows 10 October 2018 update or later. To get the feature to work you’ll need to be running the latest Your Phone app and the most recent Windows 10 build - version 20197. So, whether you need to quickly reply to a conversation, respond to your social posts, or order food, you can do it fast using your PC’s large screen, keyboard, mouse, pen and touch screen alongside your other PC apps! When you launch an app, it opens in a separate window outside of the Your Phone app enabling you to multitask. You can conveniently pin your favorite mobile apps to your Taskbar or Start menu on your PC for quick and easy access. As a reminder, Your Phone apps feature allows you to instantly access your Android phone’s mobile apps directly from your Windows 10 PC. We are excited to announce that the Your Phone apps feature which was highlighted during Aug 5th Samsung Unpacked event is now gradually rolling out to General Public.
One notable that Microsoft mentions is that you all facets of Android apps in this mode will be controllable via keyboard, mouse, pen and touch screen too. The update will let you pin apps to your Taskbar for quick launching, while you should also be able to launch apps directly in completely separate windows on your PC or laptop. : These exclusive features and device controls are now rolling out more widely thanks to a Windows 10 Insider update that Microsoft confirmed is rolling out now that the Galaxy Note 20 series has officially launched across the globe. This is manifesting itself with Android app control on selected Galaxy devices when using the Microsoft Your Phone app.
During the Samsung Galaxy Unpacked livestream, the South Korean firm talked up even tighter collaborations with Microsoft.
