DeX for PC is no longer supported on Galaxy devices running One UI 7 or later. Instead, you can use Link to Windows to wirelessly make calls, reply to texts, and access certain apps directly from your Windows computer. This feature provides a seamless way to stay connected across your devices.

Note: For those using One UI 6, DeX for PC is still available, but note that technical support will no longer be provided.

 

Why switch to Link to Windows?

Link to Windows helps you achieve new levels of synergy by allowing you to manage messages, apps, and tasks from a single PC screen. With features like Recent Apps and Recent Websites, you can easily access the apps and web searches you recently used on your phone, directly on your computer.

For more information, visit the official website.

Note: The following features previously available on DeX are not supported with Link to Windows.

  • Full Screen Mode in App window
  • USB connection between phone and PC

Android desktop screen on PC screen

Getting rid of useful features is Samsung's specialty.

DEX still exists, just not on PC. You can still use DEX if you connect your phone to a monitor or TV

So if you bypass PC and connect directly to monitor it still works? That is how I've always used dex. The way they presented this is a little misleading..

Yes, it should still work. They said "DeX for PC is no longer supported"

I had the opportunity to test it out last for a zoom meeting and I can confirm it works with a monitor.
