Windows phone app is preinstalled in Windows10, but:

• Your computer must have the Windows 10 April 2018 Update or later installed.
• Your Android device must be running Android 7.0 or later.

Syncing photos between Android and Windows with your phone requires very little setup. You just have to make sure you grant the your phone companion app permission to access your photos. During the setup process, just tap “Allow” when the companion app asks to access your Android photos, media, and files. This is required for photo transfers.

Another pop-up will ask your permission to let the your phone companion app run in the background; tap “Allow.” This ill  ensure it stays connected to your PC and always shows the latest photos. After those two permissions are granted, the feature is ready to use. In the Your Phone app on your Windows PC, just click the “Photos” tab.

Now, you can select a photo from the gallery. You can also click “Refresh” to check for new photos. When a photo is open, you’ll see the following options at the top of the screen:

• “Open”: Opens the photo in the Windows photo viewer.
• “Copy”: Copies the image to your Windows clipboard.
• “Save as”: Save the photo to a folder on your Windows PC.
• “Share”: Opens the Windows Share menu, where you can choose a method to share the photo directly.
• The three-dot menu: Gives you the option to open the photo in a different app.
