Get phone notifications and messages on your computer
Sometimes it's more convenient to receive messages on your computer, like during a meeting, when your phone is charging in another room, when your phone is in your bag, or you've accidentally left it at home. The Motorola Connect Chrome extension lets you send and receive text messages, reply to phone calls with texts, and see incoming and missed call notifications--all from your computer. The Google Chrome browser for Windows, Mac OS and Chromebook supports Chrome extensions.
NoteFor incoming MMS messages, like picture messages or group messages, you will receive pop-up notifications on your computer to let you know MMS messages are available to view on your phone. They cannot be viewed on your computer currently.
