How can ProtoPie do this and XD not? Puzzled!

Cjay: Figma is an alternative, but it has no export for animation software like ProtoPie and theirs mirroring app on Android needs version 7+ to work properly. For those who has Android <7, Figma is not an alternative at this moment.

I think this is the feature affects me the most as I belong to that designer's realm who don't have a mac or an iphone. :D
Kindly include this feature in the next update. I am sure I talk in behalf of all the designers working with a combination of a mac with android vice-versa or probably lack of an mac ecosystem like me.Thanks guys

I guess we can give up on this feature. Figma is a really good alternative.

I look forward to see Mobile Preview via USB or Wi-Fi available on Windows 10 version of Adob XD.
The preview via Adobe Creative Cloud unable to show the correct fonts.

It would be really great if this feature could work on windows as well. It's so helpful in designing process to preview directly on mobile. I found it very important.

Dear Adobe, have you ever heard of the concept corporate secrecy? To upload design files, or ANY files at all to a remote cloud service is totally out of the question. In my company there's more than 22.000 employees and ALL cloud services are banned. I wouldn't trust you guys with any files in any case. Local backup only.
Please, work on a proper solution for W10. It's getting comical.

C'mon Adobe. Still no Windows support for mobile preview?!! Are you planning to ditch Windows 10? I'm starting to doubt you guys as there is absolutely no progress in terms of XD and windows.

Any news on tethering for PC?
-
Henrik commented
Can you implement an "Update file/artboard" button when you press and hold, or drag the screen with 2 or more fingers?? For all us non-mac users without tethering? It is quite time consuming to back and forth.

Thanks Elaine for the feedback. Interestingly the USB tethering in Windows works fine with the Adobe Preview app using Photoshop. Hopefully Adobe can resolve the issues with Microsoft soon. Thanks nonetheless for all your hard work :)

XD document synched and opened from creative cloud on the iphone. but changes done on xd does not reflect realtime on the phone.

I know the tethering option is available for Mac and that the XD team is likely working on a windows version, but just wanted to highlight how desperately important it is for us to have that. Without it, I have to keep saving the XD file, which then gets uploaded to the cc cloud and then refresh my device to see the changes. I'm on a really slow internet connection, so hence the reason USB would be greatly appreciated if it came sooner rather than later. Thank you!
