Those who regularly switch between Apple products and PCs, there's good news for you. Microsoft announced on Wednesday that the company is rolling out the ability to share files between iPhone and a Windows 11 or Windows 10 PC, when the devices are connected via Phone Link and the Link to Windows app.
The iPhone must be running iOS 16 or higher, the Link to Windows app on the phone must be version 1.24112.73 or higher, the Phone Link version must be 1.24112.89.0 or higher, and the user must be registered for the Windows Insider Program.
