Windows 11 continues to advance in its Canary versions<\/strong> (systems where new features are tested before being released to the public) with some very striking changes. One of them, for example, involves the function that anticipates that we can use the mobile remotely, Phone Link<\/strong>, now it has been renamed “Mobile devices”, something that would be translated as “mobile devices”<\/strong>, the menu in which the system would be managed and controlled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Native mobile linking is one of the updates that is currently receiving a lot of attention, and that is why the company is also making an effort to give it a good name<\/strong> to the service. Therefore, if no further changes are made, its final name would be “mobile devices”<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n

New name for the device manager<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As Neowin highlights<\/a>, this new Canary version of Windows 11 has in this change one of its most notable modifications, since it implies that Microsoft is actively working on the branding<\/strong> of this service to have the most attractive name possible. Therefore, they consider that “mobile devices” can attract more user attention<\/strong> than “connected mobile”, a name that, by implying a more active concept from the user, can generate more rejection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is evident that the most important thing about functions is usually in their mere performance, but many times it is also crucial that companies know how to give the necessary visibility to a service they want to be used. That is why Copilot, one of Microsoft’s great hopes<\/a>, will soon be compatible even with Windows 10.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Expected Functions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Remote control of the smartphone interface is one of the expected features of this system<\/strong>, but it will not be based solely on that, as Microsoft could also be planning for both devices to work symbiotically: that is, for example, if you are going to make a video call on your PC<\/strong>, you can do it through the camera of your mobile phone<\/strong>, without the need to use your computer’s camera.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The potential synergies that could arise<\/strong> from the synchronized management of mobile devices and computers offer many possibilities and ideas, although they are not always easy to implement<\/strong>. That is why these changes take time and it is expected that this novelty will not arrive in the very short term, as it involves lengthy stages of testing, troubleshooting, error solving, and improvements<\/strong>, repeating this cycle many times. Therefore, we will have to continue waiting to see this “mobile devices” function active<\/strong> in Windows 11 officially.<\/p>\n\n\n
