Using phone link on PC with Android Samsung S23 phone.

Just recently I have noticed not all my text messages are on the phone app. Ones that are - are not in date order anymore.

Can this be fixed??

    Sorry you are experiencing that, If your Phone Link app on your PC is not showing all messages from your phone, here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot the issue:

    1. First, ensure that the Phone Link app on both your phone and PC is set up correctly. Make sure notifications and message syncing are enabled in the app settings on both devices.
    2. Verify that both your phone and PC have a stable internet connection. Sometimes, messages may not sync properly if there are connectivity issues.
    3. Make sure that both the Phone Link app on your phone and the PC client app are updated to the latest version. Updates often include bug fixes and improvements that could resolve syncing issues.
    4. Try restarting both your phone and PC. This can sometimes resolve temporary glitches that affect message syncing.

    5.Check if the Phone Link app has the necessary permissions on both devices. On your phone, ensure that the app has permissions to access messages and notifications. On your PC, check that any firewall or security settings are not blocking the app's communication.

    1. Sometimes, signing out of the Phone Link app on both devices and then signing back in can help reset the syncing process.
    2. If there's an option to clear cache within the Phone Link app settings (especially on your phone), try clearing it to see if it resolves the issue.
    3. If none of the above steps resolve the issue, consider reaching out to the support team for the Phone Link app. They may have specific troubleshooting steps or be able to provide further assistance tailored to your situation.

    Guess I spoke too soon. Just after rebooting and re-pairing - I received a new Text message. It showed up on the left side of the phone link screen but not within the messages as it should.

    I checked everything else on your list and seems to be fine but just not getting messages correctly
