How to Choose which Apps to get Notifications from in Phone Link app

Verified for Geek Rewind — This guide was last tested and updated in April 2026.

You control which apps send notifications to your PC through the Phone Link app.

Phone Link allows you to see alerts from your Android phone directly on your Windows 11 PC. You can customize these settings to prioritize important alerts and silence less critical ones.

This helps you stay focused by reducing distractions from less urgent app notifications, like those from games or social media apps you don’t need constant updates from on your desktop.

Once configured, your PC will only display notification banners or feed alerts for the apps you specifically select. This keeps your computer screen tidy while ensuring you never miss crucial alerts from apps like text messages or your email.
