Phone Link for Windows with JAWS
Phone Link is a service in Windows 11 that allows you to connect your
smart phone over bluetooth so you can use your computer for
taking/making calls as well as reading/sending text messages. It is
available for both Android and iOS. A link to the Microsoft page
concerning Phone Link is at the end.
The app is called Link to Windows.
I don't have it all figured out, but here is a start.
Phone Link for Windows seems to remember where you last were in the
program.
So, if you exit the app while on Messages, focus will be on the New
Message button when you start it again.
If you were on the Calls tab, it will start with your call history.
I left Phone Link on messages, so when I launched it, Jaws speech
history shows:
SplashScreen loading
Phone Link
New message Button
If I shift tab from the New Message button, I hear:
Features
Secondary Features Settings. No unread items Tab 1 of 1 Alt followed by S
Shift+tab again and hear:
Features Messages. No unread items Tab 1 of 2 Alt followed by 1
Then right arrow once and hear:
Calls. No unread items Tab 2 of 2 Alt followed by 2
Now, If you hit spacebar when on Messages and tab you get:
Features Messages. No unread items Tab 1 of 2 Alt followed by 1 Tab
again to:
Secondary Features Settings. No unread items Tab 1 of 1 Alt followed
by S Tab again:
New message Button
Tab again:
Conversations List box Recent Conversation with Richard Turner.
Message preview. Testing. 1 of 1
Tab:
Learn more about messages Button
Keep tabbing and you get info about your phone, etc.
When I am on my phone info in Phone Link and press the hotkey for
calls, Alt+2 I hear:
Call History
Recent calls List box
Carol Davies, Incoming, ?12?-?Aug?-?23 at ?8?:?25? ?PM If I tab then,
I hear:
Dialer Search your contacts Edit
You can then search your contacts.
If you keep tabbing without searching, you hear:
Keypad
1 Button
2 Button
3 Button
4 Button
5 Button
6 Button
7 Button
8 Button
9 Button
* Button
0 Button
# Button
If I am in the Search your Contacts and for example type Fred: I get this:
2 results. Suggestions: 2, fred
Fred Meyer Hawthorne. 5 0 3 8 7 2 3 3 0 0 . Work
If I hit enter on that number I hear:
Call Dialed number ( 5 0 3 ) 8 7 2 - 3 3 0 0 Button If I hit enter
again, I call that number from my computer using my phone.
The focus with Jaws lands on the End Call button, or if your phone is
handy you can do the standard two finger double tap to hang up.
If you are on the messages tab, New Message Button and hit spacebar or
enter, you land in the to field.
If I use the above example and type Fred I get the same results, and
if I hit enter, I am in an edit box to type my text message.
Note, As far as I can tell, you cannot enter hard returns/new lines in
a text message, when you hit enter, it sends the message.

I hope that is helpful,
