Using Your Android Device from Your Desktop-Tip of the Week

If you have a desktop computer and an android device, it can seem hard to get them to connect well. But were you aware that you can actually have the same apps on both? Today, we’re going to talk about Windows Android integration how this can be possible.

Here are a few things you will need

  • You will need a Samsung Galaxy device that can run Android 9.0 or later
  • You will need a Windows 10 computer with the Oct 2019 update or later (preferably, later)
  • You need to be connected to the same wireless network on both devices

This connection is not compatible with accounts that are designated as work or school accounts.

What Does Windows Android Integration Allow Me to Do?

With this compatibility, you can use your Android apps on your Windows, so you don’t need to switch between your two devices.

Here’s how:

  • A single click works as a single tap.
  • Right clicking works as the Back button.
  • Clicking and holding works as touching and holding.
  • Clicking and dragging works as selecting content.
  • Scrolling allows you to move vertically and horizontally between different apps.

This function will help you a lot when it comes to working between your PC and mobile device. Need more tips? MyTek can help with Windows Android integration.
