Microsoft revealed earlier this year that it was planning to bring Android phone notifications straight to Windows 10 PCs. If you’re a Windows 10 tester then you can enable this new feature today. A new update for the Android version of Cortana will allow you to enable individual apps to sync their notifications to a Windows 10 PC.

Missed calls, messages, and other notifications from an Android phone can appear on a PC, and they should arrive within a few seconds of them appearing on a phone. Microsoft is using its cloud services to sync the notifications, and Windows 10 users will even be able to reply to the Android notifications directly from a PC. If you’re not a Windows 10 tester then this functionality will arrive with the Anniversary Update this summer.
