Using iMessage on Windows<\/p>\n

<\/a> <\/div>\n

With its latest update, Microsoft is enabling iMessage<\/a> on Windows 11 \u2014 with some caveats. Here’s how it works and what features are still missing.\n<\/p>\n

\n

While we’re big fans of the Mac<\/a> and its native iMessage functionality, there are plenty of Windows users out there. We have a separate PC as a dedicated gaming laptop, some use a Windows machine for work, and others may just prefer the Microsoft platform overall.\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

To date, it’s been impossible to use Apple iMessage on Windows because the native Phone Link app supported only Android. That has changed with the latest update rolling out to Windows 11 users.\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

All you need to get going is an iPhone<\/a>, a Windows 11 PC, the Windows Link iOS<\/a> app, and the pre-installed Microsoft Phone Link app for Windows.\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
