A quick search comes up with "Phone Link" which only seems to work with Windows on the "PC" end, whereas KDE Connect will work everywhere that KDE works, which includes Windows.

It really isn't the same as Konnect which is a bloody marvel! I've used it for years.

Yes I think that's what they're calling it now. They used to call it something else. But it generally works everywhere windows works. Though I don't have very many windows machines myself and much prefer KDE connect. But there is something similar. Apple has one too. But it strictly only works with iPhones.

That's why the US is suing them (locking people to Apple devices).

Yes, I just hope it goes better than the whole Microsoft deal. The next president turned around and basically undid all the work of the Clinton administration.
