The Windows 10 Fall Creators Update is on its way, and it's bringing a bunch of awesome features that we can't wait to regularly use. One feature is the ability to link your iPhone or Android (such as the much-anticipated Pixel 2) with your PC, allowing you to quickly "Continue on PC" with whatever you were viewing in the browser on your phone. Since we all know about the sad state of Windows 10 Mobile, this is a welcome addition for anyone who's recently made the switch over to a different mobile OS. Here's how to get everything set up, as well as how to use the feature on Android and iPhone.

How to set up Continue on PC in Windows 10 Fall Creators Update

To begin, follow through with these steps on the PC you'd like to link with your Android or iPhone.

  1. Right-click the Start button.
  2. Click Settings.
  3. Click Phone.

  1. Click Add a phone.
  2. Click the dropdown arrow in the left field.

  1. Click your country's area code.
  2. Click the middle field.

  1. Type your phone number.
  2. Click Send.

A text message will be sent to your phone. Keep in mind that usual SMS fees will apply to this text. In our case, we're using an Android phone.

  1. Open the text message on your phone.
  2. Tap the link in the text message. In Android's case, the Google Play Store will open to the Microsoft Apps page.

  1. Tap Install.
  2. Tap Open when installation is complete.

As long as you open the Microsoft Apps package once on your phone, the Continue on PC option will be available when you share a web page.
