HP PCs - Linking Your Phone to Your Computer (Windows 10)

This document is for HP computers with Windows 10.

Your Phone is an app that allows you to upload photos from your Android 7.0 (Nougat) or later smartphone directly to your computer. You can also read and respond in real time to text messages on your phone when you are on the computer.

note:
If you have an iPhone, you can use the Your Phone app to send webpages from your phone to your computer using Microsoft Edge.

Link your phone to your computer

To upload photos and text, link your phone and computer using the Your Phone app.

If you are setting up your computer for the first time, you might be prompted to link your computer and phone during the initial setup process. If you installed a launcher app during the setup process and now want to remove it, continue to the next section for instructions.
If your computer is already set up, search for and open Your Phone, and then follow the on-screen prompts to link your computer and phone.

See the Microsoft document Your Phone app help for more information.

On your Android phone, open the Google Play Store app.
In the Google Play Store, tap the search bar, and then type Microsoft Launcher.
Select the launcher, and then tap Uninstall.
Tap OK to complete the uninstall.
