What was the problem? Did the other thread help you?

Now replying to text via notification on desktop works. Thanks so much for this update, dev Keep it up and I hope more will come! Especially on the GUI.

EDIT : Found a bug. If the text message is longer than 1, it would be seperated in two notification/chat window. Is it possible to make them as one? Thanks

Just trying this app out and wondering why bluetooth connections are not supported?
Is it planned for future updates?

Which IP does this app use? Network or public?

It uses the Wifi-IP.

 

[ZeroManArmy]

So the ip from my router? Assigned to my device?

There is one thing I noticed so far. When I click on 'New SMS' on my PC, it presents a list of contacts from my phone. If I have a contact with multiple phone numbers, only the first number is shown in the list. This poses a problem for those contacts who's cell number is not the first number listed. Would be great if you could get all the numbers, perhaps it's easier to get the default number?

I finally got it working. The only problem I have had so far, was the wrong language when I press enter after replying to a message.

 

[greenday123]

The new version of the PC-Software fixes that!

Also, I forgot to try it out to see if it works but.. does this have the ability to start once wifi turns on? Because I have an auto wifi when near home and sucks if I have to turn this app on. Might as well keep my phone out..

the service runs in the background, you don't need to start the app manually. just set the "start with phone" option in the menu.

I'm having the language issue as well and I JUST downloaded and installed everything 5 minutes ago

i'd say somethings up with the wifi connection, but it might just be my router as it's been giving me problems tonight, so i'll figure that part out tomorrow

haven't had the chance to test it since i'm at work right now. but reading the thread two thoughts came up:

1. it seems as the ip-adress of the android-device is used. since i haven't tested it yet i don't know the program behaves on dhcp-networks. to me it would make sense to use mac-adresses for computer<->smartphone detection. if it's internalliy done that way anyway, ignore this.
2. i use tasker to automate lots of stuff. so it would be nice that instead of killing the service the hard way, tasker should have the ability to "softly" start and terminate the service. via plugin or whatever makes sense in that case.

#1 actually makes a lot of sense. If you did it this way, you could truly set it and forget it. as long as you're on the same network you wouldnt have any issues where if you hop to different networks a lot you may get assigned different IP's all the time, requiring you to change the IP on the PC side every time, not that it's hard to do that, but ease of use is the reason behind all this right? lol

I love you, sir!!

Thank you so much. I've been wanting something like this since the beginning of my Android time! This works great! And it has a pretty decent and non-intrusive design.

I would love an Android app that works the same way. Would really like to see my phone notifications on my tablet.

Thanks again!

It would be awesome if there was a way to auto connect between phone and PC as soon as they are on the same WIFI, or as soon as USB is connected. Also, I wonder, is there anyway to have it so that when a GMail notification is received on PC, and I click it, my GMail is opened in a browser windows. That would be super cool.

Couldn't you just have Tasker load the app and then go HOME when you connect to WIFI or whatever? This should work, in theory. No need for a plugin then. And maybe, kill the app when you disconnect from WIFI too.

EDIT: Oh! but, it wont auto connect without some user interaction. My bad.
