# Dispatch phone-to-desktop tasks

A Fortune editor used Claude Dispatch, a Cowork feature linking phone to desktop, for a month to pull files, triage email, and prep meetings.

Result: From their phone, the author found lost desktop files, got key emails summarized, and ran Notion and spreadsheet tasks, cutting inbox clutter.

## How it was set up

Claude Dispatch inside Claude Cowork, with the Claude mobile and desktop apps, a Max plan, and Slack, Notion and Chrome connected. The desktop must stay awake.

## Worth knowing

Needs the $200 a month Max plan and an awake desktop with Claude open. Broad file-moving prompts are risky, so keep them constrained.

## Prompt

```text
For my [time] meeting, find the latest [document], summarize the last email thread, list open questions, and draft three bullets I should raise.
```

## Evidence note

First-person month-long trial in a Fortune article; no repo or demo
