Join by joaoapps for Android
Update: The developer fixed the MMS bug and now everything so far has worked flawlessly with SMS and MMS group messages! This app is great, way better than the alternatives. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------This app is seriously awesome and works much better than Pushbullet or any of the other alternatives I've tried. That being said, the MMS and group message sending from PC doesn't work very well. The message seems to send because people respond to what I said but it disappears from the chrome extension and never appears on my phone. If that worked this app would be perfect.
Pushbullet's sms limit was too strict so I payed a 1-time fee (5 bucks) for this . . I wish I did it sooner. It isn't quite as elegant or beautiful as Pushbullet, but it can do all the functions I was using on Pushbullet and more. And I love that I can have a bubble pop up to push the text I just copied. Can also have a dark theme and detachable window on the Chrome extension. Very pleased
What's a Pushbullet? This app is fantastic and easy to setup. The tasker integration is fantastic too. My parents were nervous about switching to android because of the mirroring that iPhone does. I showed them this app and they started shopping for new phones. Super developer too!
I found Join after looking for a PushBullet replacement. I now wish I'd switched a long time ago. Like all of this developer's apps, some of which I've been using for years, Join is well written, powerful, works well, and is reliable. The developer always responds quickly and professionally to feedback. Highly recommended!
This is exactly the app I've been longing for. 10 minutes and it's exactly as it says it does. I will be donating 100% to the contributor once it passes my tests without wifi and with multiple apps running but so far 100% amazing.
I really enjoy this and use it every day. The only reason for 4 stars is that sometimes I see texts for a second then when I open them up on my computer they dissappear from both the computer and my phone. Maybe I have some sort of setting wrong. I'll gladly change my review once I get this fixed. If I could get some assistance with this issue it would be greatly appreciated. Update: Whatever was causing my problems before seems to be fixed no matter if it was on textra or join's side. I'm a happy customer.
I had tried some other apps to sync with my computer and the free ones all fell short. Pushbullet wants a monthly subscription as much as the one time cost of this app. This has more options, like encrypting the communications between the app and your workstation. The interface is really smooth, and you can set up custom things via Tasker. Super versatile. I've had a few issues with answering my phone on my computer, but overall great app at a great price.
Will give 5 stars if I don't have to keep reinstalling due to having multiple accounts on my device, it thinks it's unregistered but I've paid. Many other apps have an option to "Sync Purchases" for in app unlocks. Please add something like this, reinstalling every time it updates is not convenient and many people have multiple accounts on their device. Also re-installing from the web is blocked if you installed it once, so the work around is not possible.
So incredibly useful for getting information to and from your various devices. The developer is super responsive when I had an issue, supplying me with a hotfix while the next update winded its way through Google Play. Highly recommended and paid a small sum to support further development.
This seems Is an app that I have been looking for. It does a good job of bridging that missing gap between my PC and my android. I feel like it would be very helpful for a small company that had teams which are required to work closely together and share files and documents often. The texting feature is amazing hope this app continues to grow and one day gets picked up by Google!
This was a replacement for Pushbullet and I have to admit the developer has went out of their way to create it so efficiently. Most if not all feature are available I do however wish it is possible to purchase multiple devices from one device and sync it through the account... Meaning rather than purchasing the app on different platforms being able to purchase it through one location for any platforms. Like buying it from Android and also being able to buy it from Android for windows and Mac and so on... But honestly that's just convenience feature... Overall, great job keep up the great work...
I really enjoy this app, ive been desperately looking for a good app since my alternates have stopped their updates. Right off the bat I had a little bit of trouble with receiving the pushes on my PC. Turns out even though I uninstalled pushbullet, it was still causing issues. Once uninstalled JOIN worked great! Pros: The app allows for texts to come through on your pc, the UI seems fairly intuitive. The features on the app are great! Screen casting, pushing from pc to phone are all great benefits. For the most part, the app works better than most alternatives ive used.. cons: Easily gets stuck when other apps compete for the same data, a way to view conflicts would be great. Screen cast and a lot of the useful features onlywork when the phone is unlocked, which sadly is never for me. So the only feature I end up using is SMS. Which sometimes sends sms in wrong order, or will miss them. I also find if I respond to messages directly, when I go into joins interface to look at sms, all the ones I responded to, show up jumbled. The price, but it is a price I'm ok to pay since the app functions well. Overall Great app, good functionality, supported by the dev. Would recommend to everyone.
Why is the windows 10 version paid? Isn't the unlock supposed to be looking linked to our accounts? Update: That's a fair enough reason. The app is brilliant, especially the REST API and tasker integration which make the possibilities endless. The type in app feature seems to not work for me on Nougat (Oxygen OS), but the shared clipboard work quite well so I suppose that compensates in a way. Overall it's a beautiful application! Update: Yes, it was the accessibility setting. it works great now. Thanks
One word *AWESOME* it's a life saver for me.... great job dev, hatsoff. Buy buy money hungry pushbullet
Originally purchased just for Tasker control via my Google Assistant / Home. Was worth $5 just for that. Later found that it was completely capable of replacing MightyText and had no messaging limits. The combo of Tasker plus this guy's Tasker plugins make Android ridiculously powerful.
I really wanted to use this app but could not figure it out. It's advertised as simple to set up, but I spent 2+ hours trying to get it synced with my laptop and the Windows 10 app. You also seem to have to download another program to get it to send messages to your computer. All in all, I wanted it to work but it seems to tech savvy for me, and I thought I was fairly knowledgeable when it comes to this stuff.
Cant't send SMS using???? Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 (T-Mobile) Marshmallow 6.0.1 & ???? HTC One m10 (T-Mobile) Viper 10 in either direction. Tab does have SIM and can send SMS. Phone allows me to open the SMS page but it cycles and doesn't load. 5 stars if you give me a hand. Will also email you.
Fantastic! Sent you a small donation. Keep up the good work! Will send more when I can. As a fellow developer, I really appreciate the time you've put into making Join work well.
Does what it says 100% problematically. Can't live without it. Any owner of more than one chromes or phones needs this.
Works way better than any of the other options I've tried, particularly with SMS. Also a bargain with no recurring subscription necessary. UI is fast and responsive, both in the app and the Chrome extension.
This app has made my life so much more easier! No more fumbling around looking to send links between devices. The dev is great at support too. No regrets about the purchase.
It's amazing! It definitely makes up for the lack of native messaging between my Macbook laptop and Galaxy phone. The MMS is buggy, but it works good enough for me.
Great easy-to-use app with fantastic developer support. After the free trial, $5 is a very good value compared to other similar apps out there.
Great app works Amazing , I paid for the Android version but I also want to buy the windows version as well but It's very said that I can't afford that much .
Great! It syncs quickly between my devices with a delay of 1.5 seconds at the most, even with a slow WiFi connection.
Made the switch from Pushbullet and haven't looked back.
i pay for this app and now asking me to pay again to unlocked why i should pay two time to unlock this app also i wrote to the developer and no answer for him
I recently purchased this app, and while a full blown review will follow later, the app is coming through fabulously!
Messages frequently don't sync. The app seems to be super buggy between the Chrome add on and the app. Not very satisfied with the reliability of the app.
Excellent app! Sms is sent and received without issue and very quickly. I love all the other features as well
I really enjoy this application, I use it everyday. The dev is very friendly and quick to respond to any issue that arises
Great value, no hidden IAPs, cross-platform, super responsive developer! Worth the price!
Very useful app and chrome extension bridging the functionality of my phone and desktop browser. I use it every day.
Got a notification "Trial ended. Touch here to unlock." before I could even log in for the first time.
Copy/Paste from your computer/mobile!
Any idea when you guys will come to Firefox?
There is no support for Firefox or Linux.
Great app! Love sending files from fun phone to work phone.
Does what pushbullet does, but join does it for free. Great app

I have been looking for an application like this for a long time now. I had installed pulse and I was just about to buy it when I was looking around and found a review on Join. I'm honestly hook now the ease of use when everything is all connected is amazing. Being able to send web pages, notes to All devices or specific devices is great. Also now being able to leave my phone in a location where it actually has cell reception and be able to send SMS messages from my tablet or computer is awesome. Great work, keep the updates coming thanks
