      Did you read the article?

      Ya, Android does this, but tell me how I get my phone to auto sync to my PC to display messages, photos, etc, and then detect when I take a screenshot, so windows can immediately offer to edit the screenshot?

      Currently the only way to do it is to transfer your screenshot to your PC manually, then open it, edit it, and then do whatever you wanted with the screenshot on your PC. A million more steps.

        Just use KDE connect (it’s also available on windows). Just open your file browser and select the last screenshot on your phone. (It mount your phone as removable media)

        It’s all local and you don’t have to send any extra info to Microsoft as added bonus.

        All this new and fancy stuff is already solved on Linux for a long time and on windows long before Microsoft “invented” it. By great free and open source projects.
