Android 15 blocked Phone Link from mirroring sensitive notifications, but Microsoft has a fix

Microsoft's Phone Link app can now mirror sensitive notifications from Android devices to Windows PCs after the Android 15 update had initially restricted this capability. The Android 15 update classified two-factor authentication codes as sensitive, blocking their visibility to most notification listeners, including Phone Link. To access sensitive notifications, Phone Link must be preinstalled on the device and granted the RECEIVESENSITIVENOTIFICATIONS permission. Users with devices that have Link to Windows preinstalled, like the Xiaomi 15 Ultra and Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra, can grant permission to restore full functionality. For devices without the preinstalled app, workarounds include disabling Android System Intelligence notification processing or manually granting permissions.

Microsoft Warns Millions Of Windows Users—Your PC Is No Longer Trusted

Millions of Windows users are facing issues with the Phone Link app after the upgrade to Android 15 due to new security measures by Google. The update has led to certain notifications being hidden for user protection, particularly affecting notification mirroring for two-factor authentication (2FA) codes. Microsoft confirmed that Phone Link will no longer display notifications containing sensitive information, impacting apps downloaded from the Play Store, while preinstalled applications remain unaffected. Android 15 designates notifications with 2FA codes as ‘sensitive,’ allowing only trusted Notification Listener services to access them. Google introduced these changes to combat one-time passcode (OTP) fraud and protect sensitive content, which includes redacting OTPs from notifications for untrusted apps and securing app activities when OTPs are displayed.
