Pushbullet - Unifying Your Devices, Friends and Interests

Pushbullet is a Chrome extension enabling users to keep their devices connected for easy communication and sharing. It allows users to send and receive SMS messages from their computer, respond to app messages, and share files and links with ease. Beyond messaging and sharing, Pushbullet ensures users never miss notifications by mirroring them on connected devices and allows dismissal on any device. The extension also features channels for subscribing to notifications about topics of interest. With millions of users internationally, it is translated into over a dozen languages.
