Any program similar to Microsoft PC Link?

[jnelsoninjax]

I like to be to send and receive SMS via my PC, and not have to open my phone. I am currently using PC Link from Microsoft to do this, but it has some annoying bugs/quirks/etc and I am curious if there are any other similar programs out that could do this for me. Do not suggest Google Voice, I know about that, and it does not work in my situation (I do not wish to have to rely on the web browser, just want a standalone program)

Hello,

Perhaps check to see if your phone manufacturer or your carrier offers software for Windows to do this?

if you just want sms and a few extra features and don't care about full app forwarding then AirDroid is still good to use

I have a Google Pixel, so there is no special software for it

Thanks, All I want is to be able to do SMS send/receive.It appears that Airdroid only works if the phone is plugged into the system. That will not work for me since I converted the phone to a QI charge, and do not want to have to leave the phone plugged in order to use it.

Check your messages on your computer or Android tablet.

You will need to use messages for this to work I believe.

That would work, except that I don't use messages, I use a different program, that is part of the issue I am running into with PC Link, is that I have to go to messages and make it the default program just to clear some messages that show up
