Summary

Copilot performs orders on your phone, but requires manual confirmation.
-
The initial tests show that Copilot has trouble performing tasks with precision and effectively.
With Windows 10 and 11, Microsoft has experienced different ways to connect your PC with Android. We have a telephone link, and Windows 11 had this phase where it allowed people to install Android applications via the Amazon App Store before losing it again. Well, Microsoft again enters into the connection of the connection of your phone to your PC by allowing you to send commands to your device via the comfort of your desktop PC. There is only one problem, and you may not like it.

Windows 11 gets Android commands … via Copilot
As spotted by Windows lastWindows 11 gets a new feature that allows you to order co -pilot to do tasks on your mobile. Yes, that means that you have to tell Copilot to tell your phone to perform a specific action instead of, you know, to do it yourself.
But hey, can’t you complain correctly? A new tool like this is required to interest someone. Oh, as I was naive:
First of all, I gave Copilot an prompt to define a 25 -minute timer for meditation. Copilot surely accepted it, and I also obtained a notification alert on my phone.
But the socket is that Copilot asks me to check my phone and confirm the notification to start. So I checked my phone and indeed the timer did not start. It was only when I clicked on the notification that the timer started, which beats the goal of asking Copilot to adjust a timer without my lifting the phone.
These were the initial tests of Windows Dermest on this new feature, and, well, this is not going so well. The tests continued to try to adjust an alarm (which failed) and to request the most recent received messages (which gave semi-recent messages and some deleted). Although it is clear that Microsoft wants Copilot to be a one -stop shop for everyone for his daily jobs, he must really do what people want.
