There's also a feature that makes your device ring (very loudly), for those inevitable times when you forget where you left it, and you can also retrieve its coordinates, for when you perhaps left it a little further away than your bedroom. Join lets you select what apps can send notifications through its service. Right clicking on any link, text or image lets you push it from within Chrome, or you can open your current tab on another device. The service allows you to automatically share anything that is copied to your clipboard, reply to messages from within notifications (on Windows 10), set images as backgrounds on remote devices, and pretty much anything else you might wish to do with such a service.Īpp notification permissions are granular, allowing you to select which apps can and cannot push notification across all your platforms. All files are shared through Google Drive and stored in a dedicated folder, allowing you to go back and access them at any time from any device. I played around with the app for several days, and pushing images, links, my clipboard, messages, everything worked with only the occasional hiccup (mostly due to my own fault through a short period of adjustment, but SMS messages were sometimes slow to send and the window reluctant to refresh). Join works across Android, Windows 10 and Chrome. The service is still in its infancy – its interface isn't as pretty or intuitive as Pushbullet's and the occasional bug rears its head – but, overall, it's a superior service, and it's available for a one-time payment – currently US$3.99. Although it only recently went live across all platforms – Android, Chrome, Windows 10, web – Join has already shown itself to be more versatile than Pushbullet. Thankfully, a worthy alternative has now arrived on the scene: Join. The price was also set at a rather heady US$4.99 a month, and no grace period was given for existing users to purchase a subscription at a discount. These features included universal copy and paste, notification mirroring and unlimited messages. Instead of introducing new features for the pro version, Pushbullet moved previously free features behind the paywall. Pushbullet introducing a paid version of its service seemed fair enough, but the way the company handled the transition upset many users. Link all your devices with this challenger to Pushbullet's crown.
