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."

Windows for home | Windows 10 | Connect Phone and PC

    A few hours ago I got a message to do something or other, which I did, and all of a sudden the app is working again. (IIRC it was setting permissions i.e. continuing on from where it gave up the ghost the last time I tried.)

    I checked and the last time the app on the laptop was modified was 22 August (eight days ago) and on the phone the last update was 1 August, so I've no idea what's going on.

    Very strange.

    I gather from the comments here this has happened to some other people but it didn't last. I'll see if it sticks. Hopefully it will. If it doesn't I'll just go back to Pushbullet, which works fine.

    Well, the program works fine for me and the whole process appears stable.

    I have been having the same issue since the "Your Phone Companion" was updated last week in the Galaxy Store. The new update released today did not help.

    Got it working...

    Phone:  Samsung Note 10+

    Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.18363.535] (1909)

    ensure the following:

    1)  On android > Settings > search for Notification Access > Notification Access > Find Link to Windows and enable

    2)  Disable Pi-Hole or any tracker blocking software you have

    3)  On Windows reset the Your Phone app in Settings > Apps & Features > Your Phone > Advanced Options > Repair, Also do the Reset.

    4)  On your Android device clear cache and clear data of app in > Settings > Apps > Your Phone Companion, Force Stop > Storage> Clear cache, Clear data

    5)  Uninstall updates and re-enable or Update Your Phone Companion

    6)  Launch Your Phone Companion on Android.  I found this part troublesome as it wasn't showing up in my launcher.  To handle this I installed it from the Google Play Store.  After this it showed up in my Finder app search application.  Once this was running it asked me to sign in to the app.  Take it to the next screen after signing in and then move to your PC.

    7)  Start Your Phone app on Windows 10.  At this point, I was then sent the text notification on my PC.  Nothing to do here other than Accept.  

    I hope this helps someone.

    ஹாய் நான் "யூ ஃபோன்" மற்றும் "ஃபோன் கம்பானியன்" ஐப் பயன்படுத்தி எனது ஆண்ட்ராய்டு சாதனத்தை என் ஹெச்பி விண்டோஸ் 10 ப்ரோவுடன் இணைக்க விரும்புகிறேன், ஆனால் அவை இரண்டும் வேறொரு சாதனத்திலிருந்து வைஃபை ஹாட்ஸ்பாட்டுடன் இணைக்கப்பட்டிருந்தாலும் தெரிந்த இணைப்பு உள்ளது. எனது ஆண்ட்ராய்டு சிக்கியுள்ளது "இறுதி அனுமதியைக் கேட்பதற்கு முன்பு உங்கள் கணினியில் இன்னும் ஒரு விஷயத்தை நாங்கள் சோதித்துப் பார்க்கிறோம், அதே நேரத்தில் எனது பிசி" உங்கள் தொலைபேசியை இணைக்க மற்றும் அணுக எங்களுக்கு அனுமதி தேவை. தயவுசெய்து உங்கள் தொலைபேசியைச் சரிபார்த்து அனுமதி என்பதைத் தட்டவும்.
