hi I want to connect my android device to my hp windows 10 pro using the "You Phone' and " Phone Companion" but there is is know connection even though they are both connected to a WIFI hotspot from another device. My android is stuck in a loop saying " We're checking one more thing on your PC before we ask for a final permission, while my PC stuck on" We need permission to connect and access data onyour phone. Please check your phone and tap allow."

    I had the same problem after I had to uninstall and reinstall the app on my phone. I solved it thusly:

    On my PC:

    Start

    Add or Remove Programs

    Find Your Phone and click Advanced Options just below it

    Click Reset

    That did the trick. I hope it does for you too.

    Make sure you have a direct connection like A. User said.  If you use a VPN, you may have to disconnect it just for the setup/linking of your phone.

    That worked for me. The only different step I had to do was re-install the updates. You legend!

    Agree totally. It seems everything Microsoft want to do sounds good in theory, however in practice it's usually ****

    In android mobile ( currently I'm using 9.0)

    Settings>additional Settings>Accessibility>Your phone Companion> Turn On.

    Then Try again.
