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."

    Hi,

    If possible, connect the Pc and the phone directly to the wifi router, not to a device's hotspot.

    However I suggest you to shutdown the app both on your Pc and on your phone, then retry.

    Then tell me if the problem shows up again.

    Does this mean that everytime i want to us the Your Phone/Companion app i must be connected via wifi router??

    Because if this is the case, i regret downloading the Feature update 1809........................................i'm ****!!!!!!!!!

    i work freelance and mobile using my laptop and when i use my phone as a WI-FI Hotspot it really helps alot.....

    Same issue here.

    I can't surpass that step. My phone received a notification says 'Connecting to your PC, waiting for permission' and no further proceeding. I gave every access to the app.
