Windows 11 Introduces iPhone Integration in Start Menu

Microsoft is rolling out a feature to Windows Insiders that allows iPhone users to access calls, messages, and file sharing directly from the Start menu.

  • The new iPhone integration is available to Windows Insiders using the Beta and Dev channels of Windows 11 Preview Builds 4805 or higher.
  • Users can view iPhone battery status, connectivity, messages, calls, and recent activities directly from the Windows 11 Start menu.
  • The feature requires Phone Link version 1.24121.30.0 or higher, a Microsoft account, and Bluetooth LE support on the PC.
  • File sharing between iPhones and Windows PCs is now simplified with a 'Send Files' button integrated into the Start menu interface.
  • Microsoft plans to expand this feature to all Windows 11 users in the future, following successful testing in the Insider program.
