Hi,

I just downloaded and started using the Your Phone App.  So far I like it, however, I can't figure out how to text multiple recipients on the same text.  Am I missing something?

Thanks!

    The app is excellent.  We are just trying to add functionality, or at least get a reply as to why you cant add multiple recipients.  

    Your Phone Companion is now built into new Samsung Phones.  Under Settings, find "Link to Windows". If the app has vanished from your Samsung phone, this is where it is.   You can also search "Your Phone Companion" and the settings page is still there, but it has been turned into "Link to Windows".

    If you are having an issue, cycle Link to Windows OFF and ON, and refresh Your Phone app on the PC.

    If you are sick of the Microsoft Your Phone app, you can uninstall it using the following procedure. Since the app is a broken POS, I recommend this.

    1. Open Start.
    2. Search for Windows PowerShell, right-click the top result and select Run as Administrator.
    3. Type the following command to uninstall the app and press Enter: Get-AppxPackage Microsoft.YourPhone -AllUsers | Remove-AppxPackage

    Unfucking believable. This is a major feature of EVERY text messaging app in the world! It's a very simple feature to implement. And yet "Your Phone" lacks this simple, and vital feature?

    ****, Microsoft?! I've been a big fan of Windows since it first came out. I made a good living as a software developer, using Microsoft tools and technologies.

    But, seriously...how the flock can you stay in business, doing stupid **** like this? This is maddening. And the fact that nobody from MS comments, or gives a ****, makes it even worse.

    You have failed. I will now uninstall your broken, flocked-up app, on my pc and my phone. What a waste of talent. What a waste of my time.

    Bye

    I agree... typical Microsoft lack of response!

    No way to do it that I can tell, either. This is a MAJOR omission. Without it, the PC app's usefulness is greatly diminished. The other important missing feature is the ability to delete messages from the PC app.

    MS, please add these things and you'll have a great app!

    Agreed!
