Intel Unison App connects your iPhone and Android phone to Windows to transfer and view files

The Intel Unison application is a unified platform developed by Intel that combines hardware, software, and AI capabilities to provide users with a seamless, secure, and convenient computing experience. The program offers a simple way to transfer files between the phone, whether the phone is running Android or iOS.

Similar to Apple and its iTunes app as well as Microsoft and its Phone Link app, Intel is also trying to offer its app for connected and always-synchronized devices between Android, iOS and Windows. By introducing Unison, Intel is trying to bridge the gap between a Windows device and a modern smartphone by enabling capabilities such as transferring files, managing notifications, and receiving and receiving calls on PCs or laptops.

Intel Unison vs. Phone Link app

Microsoft's Link Phone and Intel's Unison are both first-party apps that simultaneously bridge the gap between a phone and a PC. Both the apps have identical features, with Phone Tether being superior in terms of user interface and functionality.

It should be noted that although standard features such as file transfer, Bluetooth phone calls, SMS, and app notifications are available in both apps, we should also expect that some more advanced features such as screen mirroring, app continuity, are currently exclusive to manufacturers' devices such as Samsung, OnePlus and Microsoft itself.

Key Intel Unison Features:

The Intel Unison app provides some interesting features that allow users to connect their Windows PC/Laptop to their Android phone or iPhone and access the phone's content on the go, such as:

Notifications: Users can receive, interact with, and respond to notifications from Windows devices.
Text messages: Users can read and reply to text messages directly from their computer.
Media Preview: Users can wirelessly preview and sync photos from their phone to their Windows PC without the need for cables.
File Transfer: Users no longer have to rely on third-party apps to send and receive files to and from their Windows devices. The app allows users to drag and drop files between their phone and computer.
Phone Calls: Users can make and receive calls from their PC via Bluetooth.
