In my experience, text messages sent through Cortana on the PC are delayed by several seconds in each direction. Or, you can just select Dismiss or ignore the notification. Type your reply there and then select the Send (paper airplane) button. As you can see from the screenshot above, the text message notification includes a Reply field. When you receive a text message on your phone, Cortana will display a notification on your screen so that you can read the message. From this panel, you can specify one or more contacts and a message, and Cortana will send it as if it came from your smartphone. Open Cortana and type “text message” or similar, and you will be presented with Cortana’s new text message UI. Next, select the “Edit sync settings” button and ensure that the option “Get notifications from this PC on my phone” is enabled. Then, scroll down to the option “Send notifications and information between devices” and enable it if it is not already enabled. On your PC, open Cortana and select the Settings gear. To see (and respond to) incoming text messages, you will need to enable the option “Incoming message notifications.” You will then need to grant Cortana access to your SMS messages and contacts before you can do so. Here, you can select which notification types to sync. Then, select Settings > Sync notifications. On Android, open Cortana and select the little account “weeble” (as I think of it) in the upper-right corner. Then, you will need to do a bit of configuration in each location. You will also need to install the Cortana mobile app on your smartphone, and have signed in there with the same Microsoft account. –Paulįor this to work, you will need Windows 10 version 1703 or newer, and you will need to have signed into Cortana with your Microsoft account. Note: I’ll be adding this tip to my e-book, the Windows 10 Field Guide, soon. ![]() This is particularly useful for text messaging. ![]() If you’re using an Android smartphone, you can sync notifications between that device and your Windows 10 PC.
