Introduction

Alienware Mobile Connect enables you to connect your computer to a smartphone and create an integrated experience. You can work on the computer while you answer calls, send text messages or interact with your notifications. The application uses the keyboard, mouse, touch screen, speakers, and microphone of your computer. The software consists of a computer application that is preinstalled on supported Alienware computers, and a smartphone app that you can download from the Google Play store.
