OK, but limited functionality so far, and will only work if you grant all permissions. It asks for "Permissions to view photos and send texts from your PC", then when you click, it says it wants access to your storage too, but when you get to the permission settings, it doesn't ask for storage access, but does ask for contacts access, which I specifically do not want Microsoft to have. Deceptive. The kind of practice that gets apps thrown out of the Play store.

It should be easy to connect and synchronize the phone with the computer. It does not require any special programs. However, Win 11 makes a simple thing complicated. Too much hassle in settings, connections and downloading apps, but still failed to transfer data to the phone via Bluetooth. I uninstalled the program and used a USB cable instead of this failed program "My Phone"

Convenient app but needs improvement. I am working with 3 monitors and even if I move the app to the left monitor opens when someone calls, always to the center and sometimes won't open at all and I cannot answer the call. And if opens I cannot then click to my notifications. It's blocking them. I have my phone connected with Bluetooth also.
