User Reviews

Users like the core feature of viewing and replying to iPhone texts on Windows, and many use it to stay connected away from the phone. However, the app is frequently unstable and incomplete: connections drop, messages are not fully synced, group chats and media are limited, and setup can be frustrating. It’s often a time-saver when it works, but reliability gaps and Android parity issues limit its overall usefulness.

Pros

Allows receiving iPhone text messages on a Windows PC.
Keeps you connected from your PC and lets you respond without picking up the phone.
Time-saving when the connection and syncing work properly.
Helpful for daily use in work, study, and staying on top of messages.

Cons

Unstable performance with frequent dropouts and lost connections.
Limited and inconsistent message content; not all messages/media are shown and group chats are not supported well.
Setup/pairing can be frustrating and reconnects can be slow.
iOS/iPhone experience lags behind Android in feature parity.

Bro it allowed me to make a call once, now all it says is “we weren’t able to connect to your mobile device” and that I should “toggle Bluetooth off and on again on both devices” it’s a good app and concept it’s just made as if it’s a newly created app/games with a lot of bugs and troubleshoots and needs a lot of fixes. Please fix this🙏🏾 Thanks.
