Sending text message from Windows 10, does it work with WP8.1 phone?

[anon(5325154)]

Hi,

I was trying the feature to send a text message through Cortana after the Windows 10 Fall update, but couldn't seem to get it to work. Cortana would say she's sending the message through my phone but then nothing happens.

Anyone know if this feature requires that I have Windows 10 mobile on my phone as well? I'm still on WP8.1 and Cortana for phones is still alpha in my region, wonder if that matters?

Yes, you have to have the latest build of Win 10 for it to work.
