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."

Tried everything in this thread but for me, clearing all cache and personal data worked. Just go to your phone companion app on your smartphone and clear all cache and storage data. Post that, try again through the QR Code being provided in your laptop or PC.
Also, please make sure all permissions are provided to your phone companion app in your smartphone, as without it the app might not be connecting with your laptop or PC.
Please try and let me know if any further issues crop up.
do u mean to reset everything and delete every single file
I spent a couple days trying to figure out how to connect my S20 to my pc via the Your Phone app. After trying many, many suggestions, I finally figured it out. To start, I reset both the Your Phone - Link to Windows Android app and Your Phone Windows application.
I have a mesh network so my phone connects wirelessly while my laptop directly connects via ethernet to the same network. I decided to unplug my wifi extender nodes and disconnect the ethernet from my laptop so both my phone and PC were connected wireless to the primary wifi router. Once they were connected, Your Phone was finally able to connect my devices! I have since plugged in my wifi extender node and ethernet and app works fine.
I hope this helps!
