What is Reddit's opinion of
Pushbullet?
From 3.5 billion Reddit comments
100 reviews of this app found across Reddit:
I'm quite taken with https://www.pushbullet.com/ for quickly moving data between my computers and phone. I like that it will also pop up phone notifications on the computer.
When I get a text I can reply to it directly from the computer, instead of having to pull out the phone, unlock it, swype, blah blah blah.
Terribly useful.
This is a recent exchange I had with a user that exemplifies this situation a bit too:
User: "Brutal expensive!!!!!"
Me: "What is expensive exactly?"
User: "your android app and app for win 10"
Me: "Servers for the app are expensive too :) I need to pay them somehow."
User: "stupid answer, give it free!!!"
Me: "Why is the answer stupid? How would you expect me to pay for the servers if I didn't charge anything for the app? Would you work for free? :)"
User: "90% app is free, rest is for symbolic payment, your is brutal expensive - see app pushbullet"
Me: "Pushbullet costs $4.99 per month Join costs $4.99 as a single purchase.
How is Pushbullet cheaper?"
User: "pushbullet is free"
Me: "It is not: https://www.pushbullet.com/pro"
User: "yes , is free, I dont have version "PRO"!! IS free, Only you app is brutal expensive,
Bye bye"

Edit:
>Whether you want to share your phone with a family member or better manage your mobile costs, Android Lollipop 5.1 now lets you use more than one SIM card on a device with multiple SIM slots.
So thats why some Android One devices were shipped with 5.1?
I'm really liking Pushbullet! You install it on your phone/tablet and add the extension in your desktop browser - all push notifications from your devices pop up when you have your browser open, even text messages.
It's handy not having to dig my phone out of my pocket every 10 minutes or so or have a million different tabs open for emails and the like.
Pushbullet. Lets you send files and links between devices (phone/computer/tablet), view phone notifications on your computer, reply to texts on your computer, all sorts of neat stuff. Super duper handy.
Reddit is actually a pretty personal issue for us. 5 of the 7 of us worked together at Hipmunk, the company /u/spez started after leaving reddit. He's a big supporter of ours and we all really respect and look up to him. The fact that he's back as CEO of reddit should make everyone feel much better about where reddit is headed, I say this knowing him personally.
Pushbullet did take venture funding which does mean we have certain expectations. We've taken seed funding, which is the earliest and smallest (relative) amount of investment. The goal of taking this investment was to be able to focus on our product to prove that we could make it useful to a larger audience. This made sense because we've been growing as an app with far more success than "normal".
Getting Pushbullet to the point it can support itself (monetize) clearly will need to happen. Fortunately we have at least one obvious strategy, which is freemium. This is where much of our app is free, and the rest comes with a pro account or similar. As a productivity app, this is a natural fit and doesn't betray any of the work we've done so far. I'm sure we will be upset if we begin to charge for features, but I don't think it will cause people to be quite as much as reddit has managed to upset people.
To your P.S 2 - you can clear your entire history here: https://www.pushbullet.com/#settings/history, we're bringing multi-select back on Android, and I think deleting per stream would be great too.
Push anything to my phone. Pics, small files, links, whatever I have in front of me and I want to open on my phone. I don't need to install anything on the pc and I don't need to do weird shit like sending me an email. Just push a notification to my phone with whatever I want to have there. I usually send APK links when google play fucks up or pics to send people.
Last year this saved me. I followed this account and got a notification when the phone was on the Play Store.
Set up Push Notifications:
- Open @n5stock using the twitter app
- Follow @n5stock, select 'face' icon on left, and select 'Turn on notifications'
Set up SMS Notifications (works with Google Voice):
- Text 40404
- Login, or reply with a new username (that doesn't exist)
- Text 'ON n5stock'
This year they also have Pushbullet notifications at https://www.pushbullet.com/channel?tag=n6stock so that might be better.
I do this a rather convoluted way, personally. I have one personal phone and one work phone, and therefore one personal SIM and one work SIM.
- I leave my personal phone at home, plugged in, powered on, with my personal SIM inside it. This phone therefore receives all messages as soon as it possibly can.
- I take my work phone with its work SIM during my travels (or my work phone with a travel SIM, depending).
- I have pushbullet installed on both devices. This lets me see SMSes on another device AND reply to SMSes through that device (so that the phone number comes out correctly in any response) across the internet. When a UK OTP SMS appears, I can see and use it in realtime as a result.
That does require having two separate Android phones, though, and being willing to leave your personal SIM at home, which might not be something you could do.
If you have a smartphone, you might like Pushbullet instead. It's a notification app with an API that basically lets you pass messages between your devices.
There's a few Python libraries for working with it-- I use this one. Once you set up Pushbullet and get an API key, you can push notifications as simply as this:
from pushbullet import pushbullet pb = pushbullet.Pushbullet("Your API Key") pb.push_note("Test Message", "Hello world!")
It's not just a Chrome app as far as I know, but pushbullet has made sending files between my devices so much easier, and it lets me answer my texts through my computer. 9/10 would recommend every time.
I'll do it and upload to Mega if you want me to? Just hope its not against subreddit rules
Edit: I'm not going to be capping the game but I have a few sources from where I'll try to get a good quality release and upload it on Mega.
Edit 2: Okay so those of you who don't want to know the scores and get the links directly without visiting the subreddit can subscribe to my pushbullet channel, made it a little easier for all of you :)
- WizTree - Far faster than WinDirStat.
- PushBullet - Handy for sending links and images between phone and PC browser. I also use their API in some scripts to give me near-instant notifications on any of my devices. I'll typically get notified well before an email notification will hit my inbox. And, if email ever goes down, I can still get some critical updates.
- PSReadline - For teh PowerShell sexiness.
If you're not actually limited to just SMS / MMS (i.e., you have a smartphone), you can also try sending notifications via PushBullet (API documentation.).
I would highly recommend Pushbullet for this: they have a new feature called 'Channels' which is exactly for this kind of subscription-based thing, and it's free :D.
If you send an email to they will most likely even add you to their featured channels list since they are Science/[Reddit](/r/Pushbullet) lovers.
Pushbullet - pop-up in bottom-right, similar to Win10 notifications, keeps a history like Win10, accessible via the notification area. You can even reply to SMS messages from the desktop.
You mentioned not wanting to be dependent on Google? Pushbullet has nothing to do with Google...
EDIT - Oh, yes - they have a stand-alone client now. Didn't think about the Chrome extension/Google reliance.
For those of you that don't know, this is Pushbullet, a really neat Android app that connects your phone to your PC. You can send files and messages from your phone to your computer and vice versa, send text messages from your computer, follow channels (basically rss feeds), and mirror notifications to your computer.
Or use this Pushbullet channel, and look for a push mentionning occam, which is the device name for the Nexus 4.
This way you'll get notified on your device (and PC if you have the extension) and will avoid putting strain on the web server and on your computer.
Google prempted 99% of the continuity features by years: Drive/Docs, history sync, messaging from any device(hangouts) etc. As for texts(SMS/MMS) there isn't a first party solution, but there are a few third party ones, namely mighty text.
Also check out Pushbullet, its pretty handy.
You can use Pushbullet and its notification channel will send you a notification once the page updates.
- Install the app on your devices here
- Subscribe to the Nexus 6 notification channel

I just got my Note 8 a couple days ago, switching from iPhone 7 Plus. Honestly what I was most excited about is a headphone jack lol. I'm an audiophile, and the battery life (which is actually pretty good) doesn't bug me since I'm almost always wired up all around with my headphones and amp anyway, I just carry around external batteries. I avoided the V30 due to screen issues and general distrust of LG's reputation.
While I definitely miss iMessage, I've found it can be replaced with Facebook Messenger and Textra pretty well. Facebook makes a version of Messenger called Messenger Lite that totally cuts out the bloat from the main app and just leaves you with a simple messaging app that works really well. If you want to sync texts, you can always try Pushbullet.
My main reason for switching was the headphone jack, expandable storage (320 gigs as of now), the display, and S Pen. It just seemed like the all around best value for a phone, especially with the Samsung Pay promotion going on that gives you a $250 gift card.
Oh, and iOS has become very buggy for me as of late. 11.1 fixed a lot of my issues but it still was awful on my 7+'s battery. Shouldn't have to wait months for an actually working version of the OS anyway. I'm fine with Sammy taking their time to get it right rather than just pushing it out with bugs galore.
You can use pushbullet. I'm not sure about answering calls, but it shows when someone is calling and lets you respond to text messages, LINE, Facebook messages etc. It also shows notifications from various apps.
Pushbullet. It lets you copy-paste between devices, read incoming texts on your PC. Basically, when you are at a computer, you can keep your phone in your pocket or at the charger and still do everything you normally would with it.

Getting Texts/Notifications from your Phone: https://www.pushbullet.com/
Sadly we can't make Chrome keep the notifications on screen for longer. If you use our beta Windows app though, this is the default behavior. You can grab it here if you wanted to try it: https://www.pushbullet.com/apps
Install an app called pushbullet. And subscribe to the RSS feed I created for it: https://www.pushbullet.com/channel?tag=fantasyfootballreddit
The app will push notifications whenever a new post is made here. I made a post of other channels you can follow here.
> If you're using end to end encryption, can they still data-mine your pushes?
Is there any evidence they have ever, or plan to ever do this?
Lol quite the title there.
For those that watch Starcraft 2 casts, I put together some channels for Husky casts quick. These aren't on the channels homepage yet but here are the links:
Or, being more picky:
If you like pushing links, notes or photos between your different devices, iPhone, Android, PC or Mac then PushBullet is your friend.
This app is underrated. It's very good and simple.
I benefit greatly from this Nexus 6P factory images pushbullet channel to notify me when a new, you know, factory image is available to download, so I set out searching for one for when Xposed is released for Nougat. Sadly, there weren't any and I thought I'd provide this service myself.
Some things to note, though:
- Don't hate me if you still find out that Xposed for Nougat has been released on various other channels (my wife says I am as reliable as a coked up Chihuahua on house guarding duties but damnit, I will do my best!)
- That's it really. I eagerly await the release of Xposed so I'll just be damned happy to share it with people who are even lazier than I.
If you have Pushbullet, you can go here to create your own. then just share it with whoever you want to have access to the notifications. I had to install PB on my wifes phone, but it works really well.
If you go under Advanced option in CP and Sonarr, it lets you push the notifications to a PB channel instead of just your account. CP is a bit wonky in that it will give me double notifications since I'm the Channel admin, but the setup works great.
Personally, I use PushBullet, as it has integrations in a ton of stuff and is on all my devices (Windows/Chrome, Android, and iOS, as well as Ubuntu, but I rarely use it on there). Allows me to reply to texts directly from Windows, no touching the phone. There's also some great automation features using PB and IFTTT and/or Tasker on Android. Very powerful stuff!
Do you mean a live thread? We usually do that towards the end of the window iirc.
I made a pushbullet feed a few years back. I don't use pushbullet anymore, but the channel should still be working: https://www.pushbullet.com/channel?tag=reddevils
Position Bot Update
All the users being followed by someone have their own channels on <strong>PushBullet</strong>
To find out what channels to use just PM [/u/position_bot](/u/position_bot) with the command !subscriptions to get the channels of the users you are following
Be careful when writing the username you wish to follow, otherwise you won't get the correct channel.
There is a generic channel <strong>https://www.pushbullet.com/channel?tag=positionbot</strong> for all the other users.
I recommend users still using the Pushed app to migrate to PushBullet
I have no affiliation to the PushBullet app, just using it because it's free and allows for multiple channels. The notifications arrive within seconds of the position being changed
Here is the list of users that are being followed till this date:
- [/u/_chewtoy_](/u/chewtoy) with 25 followers
- /u/mikexbt with 15 followers
- /u/sloppysynapses with 15 followers
- /u/damonandthesea with 11 followers
- /u/v4mpyre with 11 followers
- /u/haserfauld with 7 followers
- /u/gypsytoy with 6 followers
- /u/joyrider5 with 3 followers
- /u/the_ops_mommy with 3 followers

- /u/mysql101 with 2 followers
- /u/l14dy with 2 followers
- /u/memorydealers with 2 followers
- /u/babies_eater with 2 followers
This system is not meant to be used as a competition to see who has the most followers, if it becomes an issue i'll disable the followers command.
I created a Pushbullet channel that will alert you whenever a stress test goes live. That way you can get alerts on your phone or computer even when Steam isn't open. The alerts are pulled from this Steam group.
>>For a "company" this big, you would expect some more number crunching before releasing a number to your user base that will definitely not work.
You do realize Pushbullet is only run by 3 people, yeah? https://www.pushbullet.com/about
Granted I definitely think they should have sent out a Google survey or something to gauge a feel of what their service is worth to current users, but they definitely don't have a large "market analytics" team or anything. Just saying.
Shameless plug. Get the feed pushed straight to your phone or browser with the Pushbullet channel: https://www.pushbullet.com/channel?tag=mlscba
Will be on a minor delay (1-5 minutes), but at least you won't have to keep checking Reddit if you're at work or something.
Here's another way:
- Install Pushbullet on both your phone and PC.
- Long press the stream you want to play.
- Choose "Copy stream link".
- Paste the link in Pushbullet and send to your PC.
- Click the link that pops up on your PC.
- Profit!
Yes.
Not to sound condescending, but it's called Google. I think a lot of people forget that Google is a software company first, not hardware. You can backup/restore contacts to Google, use Google Calendar across devices, sync browser history/bookmarks with Google Chrome, use virtually any app with Google sign-on and have the data restore on any phone. Google is very robust and powerful in account (and life) management. It's actually kinda crazy when you start to consider all of Google (and don't forget the whole Alphabet!) has to offer!
As for texting and basic file transfer, you could use AirDroid or Pushbullet. I've used both and like Pushbullet a bit more because it works off of a Chrome extension, rather than having to download a Mac App or waste a browser tab. Both are good for sending files quickly between devices (even between Macs via Pushbullet). But I'm also a huge proponent of Google Drive. You get 15 GB (I think) free or you can pay 2 bucks a month for 100 GB. As a designer, I need a lot of storage and my Mac runs out quickly. So I use Drive for virtually everything and it's glorious!
Hope that info helps.
Side note: praying that Google Allo will pick up SMS and reply-from-computer support!
Pushbullet introduced a new Pro subscription for $4.99/mo or $40/yr that makes some features that used to be free, paid. Things like universal copy/paste are now paid.
Yeah it does sound a lot like twitter. It's also very similar to Pushbullet Channels.
When the bot API is updated to support it, I expect we'll see channels for weather alerts and local news.
I think that PushBullet is very nice for this. You can send text messages, links, lists, and files to any number of phones, tablets, web browsers, clients, or contacts. You can also do the opposite and have notifications from your devices sent to your other machines and respond to them without needing to grab your phone or tablet. The API is quite friendly and there are many plenty of libraries that make use of it. I am actually writing a full command-line based PushBullet client right now using <code>pushbullet.py</code>.
Valid question, but some pimple-ridden moron in his mother's basement wouldn't have it, and downvoted it so that nobody else can help. Lucky for the OP, some of us only browse reddit.com/new.
One way you can mirror your notifications is via Pushbullet . Hope that helps.
To us, a phone looks very different after a factory reset, this is why you now have two. We don't support merging devices, sorry. You can delete the old device here though: https://www.pushbullet.com/#settings/devices
VoLTE is likely since the post mentions HD voice for T-mobile and Verizon. Verizon only has HD Voice on VoLTE.
Also a tool to check for factory images if anyone wants to manually flash an update. https://www.pushbullet.com/channel?tag=android5_1
I'm running this: https://www.pushbullet.com/channel?tag=n6stock
Which is monitoring a bunch of expected release locations, and should send you a notification within seconds of the release.
I did the same thing last year with a ton of success.
Mainly I use it to push links from my phone to computer and vice versa.
Beside I do lots of stuff with the API in combination with my server. For example I get a notification when the cpu gets too hot or I get a notification if there is a new post at a subreddit, with a specific tag in the title (if you need to be fast at answering it).
There are way more possibilities. and I think you should definitively give it a try.
>Sidebar with ability to open collapsable windows of apps
This is being worked on, check. Idk when it will be officially released through.
​
>Downloads manager collapsed in the top bar instead of a big bar at the bottom of the page
I suppose you can't change how this works, unfortunately.
​
>Pop out videos as their own separate windows that are always on top
This is called Picture-in-Picture (or PiP). You can right click a video and enable it from there (pages like Youtube have their own context menu for right click, so you need to right click twice).
Or you can open the global media controls (the button that appears whenever audio is being played on the browser) and click in the two rectangles button from there.
​
>Something to replicate the functionality of Opera Flow
Pushbullet. It allows to quickly send files or text between devices and some extra stuff which I don't use.
Aside from messaging between all your devices, Pushbullet has channels. You can make a channel from RSS feeds. Reddit provides subreddits as RSS feeds, so I made a channel for this sub here.
Ah, I think I know what's up. When you wiped your device, a new device was created in Pushbullet since it looked like a new device. This means you have 2 devices for your phone in Pushbullet, and have the old one selected in the Windows SMS interface. You can either change it there via the drop down, or delete your old device on this page: https://www.pushbullet.com/#settings/devices
You can check your devices for matching encryption data on this page: https://www.pushbullet.com/#settings/encryption. My guess is you have an old device with an old password. You can then delete it on this page: https://www.pushbullet.com/#settings/devices
My guess is one device still has data using the old password. Make sure you don't have any old devices on this page: https://www.pushbullet.com/#settings/devices
And also check here that the passwords match: https://www.pushbullet.com/#settings/encryption (we haven't added this to all apps yet, but it may help).
I just tested, and a file I shared last week was immediately removed after I deleted the push.
Edit: I deleted the individual push by clicking the [x] next to that specific file at https://www.pushbullet.com/#people.
What would be nice:
1) Ability to auto-delete these files after X days
2) Pushbullet should consider adding robots.txt limitations to indexing these files
Thank's, you can add the pushbullet internacional channels:
Portugal channel: https://www.pushbullet.com/channel?tag=nexus6p_portugal
Germany channel: https://www.pushbullet.com/channel?tag=nexus_2015_germany (working until mid December)
More info about pushbullet internacional server can be found here
Just use Pushbullet. No, you won't be able to send texts using Cortana, but you can send texts through your phone using your computer without paying anything extra. Great for sharing links and downloads as well between devices.
Sucks your device was stolen :(
You can either delete that device (Devices), or you can reset your key (Account) from this area of our site: https://www.pushbullet.com/#settings. Either one will get the device safely off your account.
>PCs can't text.
They can with Pushbullet.
Nowadays if I get the text message while I'm home I just get desktop notification and instead of typing on my phone I use the keyboard, really fast and handy.
We don't have a way to search for channels on our site. Most people don't subscribe to channels through pushbullet but through sites embedding the channel buttons. But if find a tag that is already taken you can just type it a the end the url to see it. https://www.pushbullet.com/channel?tag=engadget Does not look like that channel is being used at the moment.
I've started using Pushbullet. It doesn't allow calling, but does give you notifications, and allow you to send text messages. They have apps for Android, iOS, Mac, Windows, Chrome, and FF.
If anyone uses Pushbullet, you can subscribe to the Pushbullet MLS CBA channel that I made.
Disclaimer: still haven't tested it, but it should push any updates from the Reddit Live page right to your phone/tablet/browser.
You use the Pushbullet extension for Chrome. Set up notification mirroring and when a notification pops up on your PC, you can click "dismiss on device" right under the notification.
Edit: If that didn't make sense, try here: https://www.pushbullet.com/help
What isn't working specifically? If it is SMS, you probably have a duplicate device and need to delete the old one on this page: https://www.pushbullet.com/#settings/devices
This is duplicated since after a reset it looks like a totally different device.
I'm not sure if it's on Windows Phone, but on Android I have an app called Pushbullet that works with a browser extension on my PC. I can send texts from my laptop, as well as mirror notifications and send links and files between my laptop and phone. I'm not sure if it's on Windows, but you should check it out.
If you don't want to use SMS, Pushbullet have an API that's pretty easy to use, and free. There's several Python libraries to use it too.
Sorry, we've discovered that the .bat will never work with unicode characters since .bat files must be ASCII. You can run the new updater here though and you'll stop seeing that (no need to uninstall first): https://www.pushbullet.com/apps
For anyone who wants to get notified right away, here is the pushbullet stream for the apkmirror calendar page:
https://www.pushbullet.com/subscribe?scope=push&response_type=code&channel_tag=am557431272
Enjoy!
Yep, you can make your own channels (https://www.pushbullet.com/my-channel).
We don't have a page for browsing all channels right now. We're going to be adding more to our channels page every week and highlighting them on the blog and/or here on the subreddit. As we work on channels we'll add search and more.
Push bullet Android and Windows Desktop
If you really want iDevices you could always try Push.co(I've only looked at it never used it) along with Pushbullet. Haven't found any good cross platform
/u/guzba is one of the devs, active on reddit. Maybe he'll chime in here, or send him a message. Also check out /r/PushBullet
Edit: also https://www.pushbullet.com/security, I'm sure they'll soon update this page with iPhone info.
Well .. it depends on the notification. I mean, an iMessage will get you a notification on phone and Mac at the same time ..?
If you want a portable notification handler, look at Pushbullet perhaps?
Never mind, looks like I misread the question from the down votes.
Pushbullet is an app I use in work to pull in all notifications (SMS, calls, WhatsApp etc) from my phone without having to take it out of my pocket. Let's me leave my phone in the drawer etc but still respond to messages and stuff. It's really good.
I completely missed the calendar bit, my bad.
I would give Pushbullet a shot. Haven't tried it recently, but they have a good unified messaging solution from what I remember, and it just uses SMS instead of some other system you have to create a login for like some of the other systems suggested in this thread
It's $5 a month. $3.33 a month if you sign up for the $40 a year annual subscription. That's more than it's worth in my opinion. Especially since i don't use the bells and whistles feature. I just use it for sending links between devices and checking/sending texts from the Desktop app. There's no reason that should be limited to 100 a month. They can put the other stuff behind the paywall, but they really shouldn't put basic features like that behind the paywall. It's just silly.
Pushbullet.
Copy-paste between phone and browser (and any other device that runs apps, really)
See notifications from your phone in your browser
Respond to text-messages within your browser without touching your phone.
Pushbullet is an app that allows you receive notifications between devices, transfer links and files, and in this case it can be used to receive specific notifications from a channel. If you have heard of IFTTT, this feature is similar.
It is a fairly well known service among Android users on reddit and enthusiast websites.
I have an idea on this. It's possible the main Pushbullet app is running preventing our updater from updating it. Could you check and see if there's a process called pushbullet_client.exe running? If so, stopping that and restarting the updater can help.
If that doesn't work, you can safely run our installer again over the current app to see if that helps (https://www.pushbullet.com/apps)
Excellent idea OP! For people who use Pushbullet, I made channels for Zach Lowe and Kirk Goldsberry that might come in handy.
Universal copy & paste was causing issues for people so we have had to remove it from our Firefox extension. Wish we didn't but it was causing tons of temporary files to be created and never cleaned up, messing with formatting for other programs, all sorts of sad stuff we couldn't fix since we didn't control that. You can grab our Windows desktop app here though: https://www.pushbullet.com/apps
You can see a comparison between Pro and Free here:
https://www.pushbullet.com/pro
The (now paid) features that many people are concerned about are:
The 100 monthly SMS limit for free users/unlimited for paid
Mirrored notification action support
Universal copy & paste
I think a 5% cap for offers under $10k for the first few hours could be sensible.
And also a reminder to everyone that this exists: https://www.pushbullet.com/channel?tag=kickfurther - install the android app, or desktop extension, and you'll get a push notification when there's a new offer. I've never missed a new offer :).
Pushbullet - Works on a ton of browsers + PC/Mac + Android/iOS, see your phone notifications on your computer, send files between devices, send txts from your computer too.
Yes yes yes!
I have a macbook pro 2011, its running windows 10 because OSX is slow and somewhat troublesome to put myself through, but ill assume this works across both.
Grab pushbullet on both your phone and laptop (or even the chrome extension) and you're set
Toodles
They are not publicly available. Those urls are completely private and unless you share them, no one can go to them since they don't know them. They have the password "baked in" to the url which is not guessable.
If you want to delete all of your data (mms pictures included), you can delete your account on this page: https://www.pushbullet.com/#settings/account
I'm very happy with the Moto X 2014, and the new Moto X Style is supposed to be even better.
It's about as close to stock Android as you can get without actually being a Nexus, plus it has some other neat features added on. Like most Android phones, Google is front and center too.
It works very well with the smart unlock feature on Chrome and I've gotten it to work with Airdroid, Pushbullet, and the new Vysor program as well. All of these are great ways to integrate your phone with your Chromebook.
We do want to make an app but it is not our priority right now. One of the big benefits of an app is the push notifications. One of our users created a PushBullet channel if you're interested in getting push notifications to your phone for new offers: https://www.pushbullet.com/channel?tag=kickfurther
As for different payment methods, our top priorities right now are allowing you to link your bank for deposits and withdraws, as well as PayPal support. I'm excited to say we're very close to being able to release these new payment options.
Protip for sellers: get PoE Whisper Notifier, godtier tool. pair it with Pushbullet to get notifications on your phone too.
Not just Chrome. Works on Chrome, Firefox, Opera, and Safari, along with native apps for Windows and Mac. Each is in a slightly different state if development, but all are stable and work well.
For reference, pushbullet website and /r/pushbullet.
You're welcome! If you use Pushbullet, you can follow this channel to get a notification whenever Origin has a free "On The House" game. It's pretty neat.
A quick thing for the Website/Channels, and getting more users involved here on Reddit:
maybe you could feature https://www.pushbullet.com/channel?tag=pushbulletreddit, it's a Channel that triggers every time a new thread is started here in /r/Pushbullet.
:)
Hm, sorry about that. Should only need to Ok the update once but clearly that's not sticking for you. No prob though, running the new installer from this page: https://www.pushbullet.com/apps will clean everything up and you'll be good to go again (no need to uninstall first).
If you mean from PC to phone, I recommend you install pushbullet.
Install the app on your phone and the chrome extension, then you can share links, music, pictures and all kinds of files from you PC to your phone through wifi
Yo pushbullet dudes (whom I've seen commenting in reddit threads so assuming someone will see this), it would be cool if you could put a chart somewhere prominent (maybe somewhere like this page) that shows which features are supported/not supported between different platforms.
Pushbullet is great for me for Windows<->Android, and I nearly recommended it to my iPhone-using father after he described some problems that pushbullet would solve. But I looked it up first and, after some digging, found out that texting integration isn't really there for iOS, and iOS<->windows doesn't work for notification mirroring. So it was a no-go.
I get there are platform limits you need to work within. But as a user, a simple grid chart would go a long way to knowing what those limits are, instead of needing to query the faq or search for this kind of info, when the core question is essentially "so what will this app actually do".
Use PushBullet
Installed on both your laptop and phone it allows you to synchronize text messages between the two devices. And you can send and receive from either platform.
I just installed it a couple days ago, and now I'm kicking myself for having taken so long to get it. Download the Windows file and get the app. Sign in, and I think it just starts working. I don't recall much set up. I get a little pop up that when I double click it allows me to respond to texts. I also get all of my notifications popping up and you can dismiss straight from your computer. Really handy.
PushBullet mirrors all notifications so I use ti to know when someone mentions me in a tweet, or when someone replies to me on reddit, etc. It's just a way to easily get all the notifications that my phone gets while on my PC.
As for the SMS support, it also works with other apps like WhatsApp and Facebook. So if I get a message from either of those three I can directly reply without needing to get my phone.
It also lets me push links/text/files between my devices. If I'm going to a restaurant I can push the address to my phone and then open the maps app later. Or I can push a PDF I need for later, etc.
Lastly, they support channels but I don't use this feature. Basically you can subscribe to a channel they support and get a notification anytime something happens. Think of it like IFTTT.
For sure I won't remember to check every month, so I made a Pushbullet channel to receive a push notification as soon they post something new.
Here's the link! https://www.pushbullet.com/channel?tag=freelightroompresets
You can set a Pushbullet notification alert if anything changes on the live stream page. Really really useful!
Edit: I made a Pushbullet channel that's linked to the RSS feed of the Reddit Live page. You can subscribe by clicking here and clicking subscribe. I haven't tested it yet, but it SHOULD send you a push notification every time there's an update to that page. No promises yet.
Thanks for the update. By chance, did we ever come up with a certain day every month to do this? Much easier to keep track of when to enter, when to pay, etc.
And yes, I'm aware of the Pushbullet option.
Welcome!
Also OP if you use PushBullet they have a channel you can stay up to date on the next draw, once you read the side bar and the FAQ section...
