View your complete thread history, reply instantly, and compose new messages without ever touching your phone.
🔔 Universal Notification Sync All your Android notifications appear instantly in your Mac's native Notification Center. Reply directly to WhatsApp, Telegram and other apps inline from the notification popup. Dismiss an alert on your Mac and it instantly clears on your phone. Dismiss on your Android and it clears on Mac too. Use the app filter to selectively block noisy apps from reaching your desktop so you stay focused.
📞 Intelligent Call Management See exactly who is calling right on your Mac screen. Accept, decline or mute incoming cellular calls without reaching for your phone. Full WhatsApp call support included - something KDE Connect and AirDroid completely miss. Dual SIM call support lets you choose which SIM to call from directly from your Mac. Your complete Android call log syncs to Mac so you can view missed calls and redial instantly.

I really like the app my husband recommended it. I had an issue connecting due to the firewall turned on for the app I contacted the support email and the developer calmly helped me trouble shoot it. Thank you
