Introduction

Dell Mobile Connect enables you to connect your computer to an iPhone and create an integrated experience. You can work on

the computer while you answer calls, send text messages, or interact with your notifications. The application uses the keyboard,

mouse, touch screen, speakers, and microphone of your computer. The software consists of a computer application that is

preinstalled on supported Dell computers, and an iPhone app that you can download from the App Store. Dell Mobile Connect

uses an Internet connection to transfer files, share contact information, and establish a phone mirroring session. However, the

mirroring, and send notifications.
