LinConnect smartphone notifications on Ubuntu. Why not view the incoming notifications on our mobile device even when we are comfortably seated at our PC?


Fortunately, there is a software, LinConnect, which after being installed on our Android device (client) and on our PC (server) will allow us to take a look at all Facebook messages, WhatsApp, or any other notification arrived on the mobile / Tablet.

If we want to proceed with the installation of the software, we grab our Android phone. From here, we proceed to download the free LinConnect Alpha for Linux app: for everything to go the right way, the Android version installed on our device must be higher than 4.0. After this phase, we just have to install the server and then move to our PC.

LinConnect is a simple, fast notification mirroring application for Android and any Linux desktop. Works with almost all Android applications.


Features:

  • Extremely simple installation
  •  Integrated with Linux desktop icon theme
