As long as you pay attention to the digital circle, you will definitely notice.
Mobile phone manufacturers are more and more like to mention a word:
"Ecology"
Wrong wrong, not this, start over!
Ahem, ecology is about to become the next track for mobile phone manufacturers.
In order to allow more users to use the "family bucket", each family has developed the interconnection function of mobile phones and computers.
But most of them have a small problem.
Even if you kill and are not willing to be compatible with the opponent's device/system.
Not to mention, there's an iPhone next door that doesn't send you files with a data cable.
As a result, the most popular mutual transmission app on the market is this:
Fortunately, for such a current situation, finally a giant said that it could not stand it.
It is the toothpaste factory we are familiar with - Intel.
To make Windows computers and these tsundere Android/iOS phones get along.
Intel launched its own connected app this month:
Intel Unison
Today, let's take a look at how this Internet app with a full pattern is experienced.
Intel Unison
According to the introduction, the functions of Intel Unison can be divided into four scenarios:
First of all, it supports wireless file transfer between mobile phone and computer, replacing data cables and certain green software functions.
Second, it lets you access your smartphone's photo album on your computer and view photos and videos.
It can then do something like when your Mac and iPhone are connected, making calls and texting directly on your computer.
Finally, it can also sync your phone's notifications to your computer without worrying about missing messages.
These features sound good and do not discriminate for Android/iOS.
That's quite conscientious, praise!
So without further ado, let's get started...
And slowly, if you want to successfully install it, you actually have to go around in small circles.
As a first step, we need to install the Intel Unison app on our phone.
iOS users, just search directly on the App Store.
Android users need to go to the Play Store to download, or turn to the almighty Baidu.
Then, click on the app on your phone and pay attention to this line of text in the interface.
We need to click on it first, then click "Get Link" below to send the generated link to the computer.
Finally, tap on the computer to jump to the Microsoft Store to install the app.
Otherwise, you won't be able to search for the app directly in the store...
Why do you want to make the installation experience so awkward, the machine brother really doesn't understand.
It can only be said that you better be really a bit of a unique skill to be worthy of this toss.
Goodbye, Transfer Assistant
Before starting the experience, the machine brother first made a small wave of spoilers.
The Intel Unison Internet experience is really cool!
The first impression of this app is simplicity.
After opening, it is directly a simple and beautiful launch page, what advertising, mobile phone number login is non-existent
Target.
Of course, tutorials do not exist either.
Don't worry, Brother has already figured out all the details of it.
The connection method is very simple, open the app on the mobile phone and scan the QR code that appears on the computer.
After successful connection, the main interface of the software can be divided into two parts: "Ribbon" and "Settings".
In the upper-left corner, the phone that is currently connected.
Click down, you can check how much battery is left on the phone, and you can also notify the phone to shut down with one click.
In the settings project, "General" can set the automatic start of the software and clean up the storage space.
In "Notifications", you can modify the style of mobile notifications.
For example, in the workplace, selecting the "private" mode can hide the details of the notification.
"Phone" just... There is only one option: whether to answer the phone on the computer.
However, don't look at it, setting up the project super concisely. (Humble)
The "file transfer" function of Intel Unison core is really comfortable to use.
If you want to upload any file, drag and drop it directly.
The speed depends on the speed of your LAN.
Common routers on the market can basically run to tens of megabytes per second.
As we all know, there is an old problem with the transfer assistant of a green app.
I like to throw the files I have passed in the folder I created.
Fortunately, the strictly managed iOS is also good to say, on Windows and Android, this operation is very affecting the experience.
And Intel Unison is very user-friendly in this regard.
For example, we first transfer a picture or video from the computer to the mobile phone.
Intel Unison creates a special album in the Photos app to store them.
If the transfer is a different type of file, a folder will be created directly in the Files app.
In this way, applications on the iPhone can access these contents through "files".
No need to rummage through the chat history for most of the day like a file transfer assistant.
You also need to tap "Open with another app" to share the file.
In turn, transfer files to computer with mobile phones.
Intel Unison will also create a special folder in the system's "Downloads" directory.
It will even help you sort and store your files according to their type.
The whole process is simple, senseless and intelligent.
Obsessive-compulsive people, is this comfortable?
It can be said that the overall speed and experience, Intel Unison completely killed the file transfer assistant here in the machine brother.
But that's not all, it still has four functions to shoot.
The next "gallery" function is to move the entire mobile phone album to the computer.
From here, you can select, download, and delete images from your album in bulk.
When deleting photos, you also need to confirm it again in your phone.
It may be due to data security and hands-on prevention needs.
Similar to smartphone albums, in Intel Unison, you can choose different photo views for easy batch management.
The video in the mobile phone can also be opened directly on the computer.
No need to "view the original video" one more step, it is directly the highest definition.
The machine brother tried it, whether it was dragging the progress bar or switching to the next video, the smoothness was OK.
In addition, "Album" also supports the same drag-and-drop image function as file transfer.
With this, you can basically say goodbye to the data line thoroughly.
The only fly in the ointment is that the thumbnail of the photo is a bit mushy, and I don't know if it can be improved in the future.
The third function is "SMS".
There's nothing to say, just text on the computer.
But in the past, if the iPhone wanted to do this, it had to be equipped with an eighteen thousand Macs.
Now, an app is there for you.
Not fast yet, thank you toothpaste factory!
Also, when texting, you can add emojis, emojis, and GIF emojis.
However, its built-in GIF function comes from a third-party "flash cute".
The quality is quite uneven.
For example, under the classification of "Genshin", an expression of "Ark of Tomorrow" was inexplicably mixed... (There are inner ghosts, termination of trading)
But that's not a big deal.
After all, few people texting at all these days.
Compared to text messages, it is more useful to make phone calls on the computer.
For the iPhone, this feature was also exclusive to Macs before.
It's a pity, though, though its dial pad is full of letters.
However, like the iPhone, it does not support searching for contacts with T9.
When you make a call, it pops up a floating window on your desktop.
When you need to press "1" and "#" to interact, you can click on the keyboard.
Overall, it's no different from making a phone call from your phone, and the experience is seamless just like a native app.
The last function is to receive mobile phone notifications on the computer.
When your phone comes to notifications, it will push you through the notification center that comes with Windows.
On the main interface of the app, you can view all the notifications received in a unified manner.
With this, you no longer have to glance at your phone every once in a while.
Not limited to SMS / WeChat, as long as it is an app on the mobile phone, it can all synchronize notifications with zero delay.
However, this reception is really limited to receiving.
The ability to view specific content and reply to messages is not currently supported.
No way, after all, Intel Unison can't really control the apps on the phone.
This is also its biggest shortcoming compared with the interconnection of those big factories.
However, with its file transfer and album management, it is compatible with all brands.
Brother is also willing to leave it in his computer.
Of course, there are currently some slots in this app that need to be solved.
For example, you can only remember one mobile phone/computer at a time.
When the machine brother returned home from the company, he had to cancel the connection and scan the code again. (This is very WeChat)
It should also be noted that to use this app, your phone and computer must support Bluetooth.
Otherwise, it will look like this:
Finally, and the biggest slot.
The official installation package, currently only supports Windows 11 system...
If you want to use Windows 10, you can install the magic revision made by the god.
But let me say more.
This kind of magic modification App, the machine brother only recommends the machine friends with strong machine ability to play the whole thing.
Most ordinary users, still be careful.
I don't know if the toothpaste factory will update more easy-to-use and fun interconnection functions in the future.
At least now, users who have not boarded the "family bucket" finally have a high-quality choice.
