Make and receive phone calls from your PC
Leave your Android device in your pocket the next time it rings — pick it up from your PC instead. Calling requires Bluetooth capability on both your PC and on your Android device, so make sure you have it turned on for both.
To make a call on your PC:
Open the Your Phone app and select Calls.
In the Search your contacts box, search for a contact name or number. Alternately, you can directly enter a phone number on the dial pad.
Select the dial icon to start your call.
If you don’t have Bluetooth available on your device (or if it’s been turned off), you won’t be able to make or receive calls on your PC.
If you encounter issues while using the calling feature, these troubleshooting tips may help.
Android permissions are required for this feature
The first time you use calling, you’ll be prompted to allow permissions on your Android device. Selecting Allow on these permissions will let the Your Phone app access and display information from your Android device.
How do I see my phone’s recent calls on my PC?
On your PC, open the Your Phone app and select Calls. Your recent calls will be displayed here.
How many recent calls can I see?
The Your Phone app displays calls you’ve made or received in the last 90 days.
Can I manage or delete my recent calls?
You can’t manage or delete recent calls from your PC.
How do I mute a call?
You can mute a call by using the mute button on your Android device or PC.
When you place a call on your PC with Your Phone, a small separate window opens to display the call you’re on:
Click the downward pointing arrow to expand the window. Then the Mute button will become available:
When you start a call on your PC and transfer it to your Android device, you can only mute the call from your phone (not from your PC).
If a call is happening on your Android device, you can’t mute that call from your PC.
Making emergency calls with the Your Phone app
Emergency Services. While it may be possible to place calls to or receive calls from Emergency Services using Your Phone, note that Your Phone is not a replacement for your primary telephone service. Your Phone calls may not work or may get disrupted due to power issues, distance from your PC to your phone, or other technical issues. In addition, there are important differences between Your Phone and traditional wireless (mobile) or fixed-line telephone services. Your Phone is not required to offer access to Emergency Services under any applicable local or national rules, regulations, or law. Your Phone is not intended to support or carry emergency calls to any type of hospitals, law enforcement agencies, medical care units or any other kind of services that connect a user to emergency services personnel or public safety answering points (“Emergency Services”).
Calls+: управлять вызовами стало еще проще
Новое приложения Calls+ от компании Microsoft поможет вам в управлении настройками переадресации вызовов на Windows Phone устройствах и в режиме их ожидания. Теперь есть возможность переадресовывать вызовы, если вы заняты, не имеете возможности подойти к телефону или он находятся вне зоны действия сети.
Также приложение свободно можно использовать для устройств оборудованных двумя SIM-картами. Стоит отметить, что программа Calls+ напоминает Network+, но в новой программке есть расширенные настройки переадресации вызовов.
После установки, приложению Calls+, необходимо дать права доступа к настройкам телефона и оно будет доступно в настройках системы, среди других системных приложений. На платформе Windows Phone 8.1 данное приложения можно найти в разделе «Дополнительно».
Не очень хорошо то, что в магазине Windows Phone новое приложения доступно только на английском языке и только для владельцев устройств на базе Windows Phone 8.1. Возможно, как это традиционно бывает, вскоре компания Microsoft разработает какие-то дополнительные возможности и функции.

Поделиться «Calls+: управлять вызовами стало еще проще» How to use the Phone Calls feature in Windows 10The Your Phone app is a neat little project that Microsoft has been working on for some time now. It has been updated frequently and enriched with a host of cool new features. One new feature that Microsoft has been working on is the ability to make actual phone calls from the Your Phone app. After some hands-on experience, we’ve compiled a guide as to how you can use the Phone Calls feature efficiently How can I make phone calls with the Your Phone app?
Additionally, you can look up your contacts using the Search Bar, or by looking them up in the Recent Calls list. One interesting feature is that the phone and the PC don’t need to be on the same Wi-Fi network in order to work. Thanks to this, you can keep your Android phone on its independent 4G network, disconnected from the Wi-Fi, and the calls from your PC will still work. Also, since the PC and the Android phone will be linked via Bluetooth, the call will be made instantly. This handy feature has been a long time coming, especially for an app that calls itself Your Phone. The limits of the Calls featureThe only limitation to this feature is that since the two devices are paired via Bluetooth, the app‘s usefulness is limited by the Bluetooth range. This greatly reduces the number of things you can use this new feature for in real-life applications. More so, Microsoft has been struggling to make the Your Phone app more stable for public use. This can be easily seen from the number of issues reported by users. Regardless of which, the Calls feature can be viewed as an experiment to test out the compatibility between devices, and how they can be applied. Whether it is a success or not, only customer feedback will tell. Do you think that making calls via the Your Phone app is a great improvement? Let us know in the comments section below.
