I’ve tried Google’s Messages for Web, Microsoft’s Phone Link, and KDE’s Connect. They all seem to have the same problem: they lose connection constantly and have to be unpaired and re-paired. Is this a problem inherent to the way that Android works? Has anyone managed to solve it, or is there a setting to fix it?

Thanks!

        With Google voice you can set up a completely new number. Or you can port your old number into Google voice.

        It will show up as a VoIP number if anybody does a look up on it. If that’s a problem you can use Google Fi and then use the web messenger to send and receive texts from your Google phi number. Even if the phone is off
