From what I am reading, one should be able to link one's Note to a Chromebook and get the phones notifications. But that option isn't there for me with my Note 20. I'm I missing something?

If you connect your phone, you can use Messages for Web (i.e., SMS/MMS on your Chromebook), and you can also use the phone to unlock the Chromebook (as long as your phone is unlocked, you can unlock the Chromebook by clicking/tapping your profile pic on the lockscreen). At this time, there's no support for showing actual phone notifications on the Chromebook screen, but they're working on it: https://9to5google.com/2020/09/15/chrome-os-android-phone-hub-everything-can-do/. It's still in development -- not sure if it's on the Chrome Beta or Chrome Dev channel right now.

Thanks!! I did see a screenshot where one can enable notifications. Perhaps that was from the beta channel.

Just making sure I wasn't missing something. Thanks for the reply.
