everytime i missplace my phone this saves me so much time
Tbh it's kind of a terrible app. I can never keep it connected and the UX is just painful. The most useful feature is transferring files, but when uploading to my PC the dialog box always closes itself before I can see where the file went.
You can try transferring files through MEGA. Its parallel synchronization is really fast.
I never could get it to work in KDE Neon.
You're missing out. The trackpad function is amazing, not having to get up from bed when your desk is too far is a god send. I know I could buy a wireless mouse, but why if you can just use your phone?
This, it works great. Also it's the future we deserve. Screw rational feature design for the common denominator, I want my phone to control my computer in every way possible and vice versa.
you need to be on the same network which also means excluding VPN on local network (or connect both PC and phone on the same VPN network)
KDE connect is so good it works better than the windows built-in integration to android.

I cannot say I know if this is a function on the Linux version, but one tiny gripe I have with Connect is that I can send my clipboard from my phone to my windows desktop but not vise versa.
I can definitely say, though, that the pretty much only other function I use (file sending) is pretty good when I want/need to send smaller things to my desktop and vice versa.
Because it wasn't made by King K. Rool
While I love the idea of KDE Connect, in practice the SMS feature doesn't work reliably at all.
Don't forget you can't send pictures from your PC because... reasons.
