How To See Your Android Notifications on Your Windows PC?

By

 Requirements

▪️PC running Windows 10 April 2018 Update or later

▪️Android phone running Android 7.0 Nougat or newer

⭕️ Step 1: Install 'Your Phone Companion' on the Phone

👉 First, install Microsoft's "Your Phone Companion" app on your Android device. You can download the app from the Play Store.

⭕️ Step 2: Install 'Your Phone' on the PC
 Note: If your computer is running Windows 10 October 2018 Update or newer, this app is already preinstalled, so you can skip this step.

 Now, open the Microsoft Store app on your Windows PC and search for "Your Phone." Select the app from the list and choose "Install" to install it on your computer. If you haven't already, you will be prompted to sign in to your Microsoft Account (if you don't have one, you will need to create one).

 When you open the app, you'll be asked for a mobile phone number. This isn't necessary, as Microsoft uses it to send a text message to your phone with the link to the Your Phone Companion app's Play Store page, which you should already have installed.

⭕️ Step 3: Connect Your Phone to Your PC

 Open the app on your phone and select "Get Started." Choose "Continue" and follow the prompts to provide the necessary permissions.

 If you are having trouble with the prompts, go to your home screen, open your app drawer, then long-press the Your Phone Companion icon and select either "App Info" or the small "i" icon on the popup. On the next page, select "Permissions," then one by one, enable the "SMS," "Storage," and "Contacts" permissions. Now, open the app again.

Choose "OK" on the next prompt inside the app and switch to your PC. Open Your Phone on the computer, then a notification will appear on your phone asking you to "Allow this phone to connect to Your Phone app." Choose "Allow," and your phone and computer are now linked.

⭕️ Step 4: Enable Notifications

 On your PC, select "Notifications" in the Your Phone app. Choose "Get Started," then select "Open Settings on phone." You will receive a notification — tap the "Open" button here. Your phone will be redirected to the "Notification access" menu.

Find "Your Phone Companion" in the list and enable the toggle. Choose "Allow" on the prompt and use the back gesture (or button) to return to the app. Select the "Open Settings on phone" button on your computer again. The Notification page will now refresh and display any notifications here you receive while the link between your phone and computer remains.

⭕️ Step 5: Configure Alerts

Now that everything is set up, let me show you some of the adjustments you can make to optimize the experience.

 In the Your Phone app on your PC, open "Settings" and scroll to the bottom of the page to see some of the available options. For now, the main option you'll want to want to play around with is "Choose which apps notify you." Select the down arrow next to it to reveal a list of all the apps on your Android device. Disable the toggle if you don't wish to show notifications from that app on your computer.

❌ Things to Know

While this solution works well, it isn't without limitations. First, you can't access Smart Reply options as you would on your phone.❌

HOW CAN WE MOTIVATE OURSELVES MORE EFFECTIVELY THROUGH REINFORCEMENT?

By
•We'd all like to be more effective in reaching our goals, and according to behaviorists, the way to improve our effectiveness is by rewarding ourselves for the little steps that take us closer and closer to those desirable outcomes.  •First, find something you really like to do or something you'd like to have that can, realistically, serve as a reward.  •Then, take the goal that you are hoping to achieve that, realistically, you could achieve but just haven't succeeded at yet.  •Next, work backward from that goal to your present state.  •Arrange to give yourself those desired rewards as you inch closer from where you are now to the desired end point.  •As you start to make progress, only give yourself a reward when you've moved forward from where you are now.  •For example, if you'd like to cut back on your television watching and instead read more often, reward yourself by allowing yourself to watch television only when you've read for 20 minu...

WHY DO WE SLEEP AND DREAM?

By
•We spend about one-third of our lives sleeping.  •Why do we invest so much time in sleep?  •The most straight forward answer is that, sleep is restorative, and it replenishes the body's energy stores.  •However, intense neural activity during rapid eye movement (REM) sleep, the stage in which most dreams occur, suggests there may be more to the story.  •One theory, which by far has the largest body of evidence, is that sleep plays a critical role in learning and consolidating memories.  •It is probably why infants and toddlers need up to 14 hours of sleep a day, with half of it spent in REM sleep.  •In adults, dreams may also play a role in brain plasticity and learning, which is why sleep-deprived adults perform worse in memory tests and tasks.

Inside an MRI scanner

When doctors need the highest quality images possible they turn to MRI scanners, but how do they work? MRI scan ,MRI test, MRI use in medical field, constitutent of MRI machine. Doctors often plan treatments based on imaging. X-rays, ultrasound and CT scans provide useful pictures, but when the highest quality images are needed, they turn to MRI scanners. While CT scanners use x-rays and therefore expose the patient to radiation, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) uses powerful magnets and is virtually risk free. MRI scans are obtained for many medical conditions, although since they  are expensive and complicated to interpret, they certainly aren’t as easy as taking a chest x-ray. Examples for which they are used include planning surgery for rectal cancers, assessing bones for infection (osteomyelitis), looking at the bile ducts in detail for trapped gallstones, assessing ligamental damage in the knee joints and assessing the spinal cord for infections, tumours or...
