How do I use Surface Pro with iPhone 8 Plus?

[SOUL_kalisa]

is it possible to collaborate with surface pro and iPhone at the same time, get calls, message notifications, up dates all notes without having to check both iPhone and surface ? I can't take my surface pro with me every where, but I can take my iPhone, ideally I like to travel with both, but it is a hassle. when will they create a platform to collaborate iphones with surfaces when Microsoft knows a majority of people dont have windows phones and have iphones. bottom line, apple makes the best phones, Microsoft makes the best lap tops

re:

I don't know if Microsoft has any native software for this, BUT there might be a 3rd party solution for this. Also if your provider is T-Mobile, then you should look in to their "Digits" feature which does exactly what you are looking for....

re:

im not interested in getting a t mobile plan. I already have Verizon ? why would I pay to use a third party phone plan just to connect my devices. which would also take away my imessage capabilities.

You are misunderstanding me. Let me rephrase. There might be A 3rd party solution, an app you can download to provide this service. (PERIOD, NEXT SENTENCE) OR if you have T-Mobile (which you don't so ignore this sentence) then they have this digits plan you could use.

Further I don't know offhand of any 3rd party solutions. IF you had all apple though it would work, Apple provides this synergy between their products. I'm NOT suggesting you go buy a Mac! lol

re:

Apple doesn't play well with others and has no intention of doing so any time soon. Like pkcable said, you'll just have to find a third party solution or switch to Android if you want more integration between your phone and PC.

re:

Microsoft has an app called Your Phone. It works with both iPhone and Android.
