The phone link now puts the notification panel on top, and the notifications tab is pinned to the left panel. Microsoft has moved the News, Photos, Apps, and Calls sections to the navigation bar above the phone link. The notification section has also been cleaned up to make it easier to display important announcements.
The updated Phone Link app has a Windows 11 compatible color palette and design with updated controls, layouts, and icons. The Phone Companion app for Android is also being renamed Link to Windows, and the two apps will share the same icon.
In addition to the design changes, Microsoft has partnered with Honor to provide dial-up connectivity in China.
