Pushbullet is an application that is used to send files instantly from mobile to computer, but that also lets you synchronize notifications between devices. It’s available for Windows, Linux, and OS X thanks to the fact that it works with Google Chrome. You will need Android 4.1 or later for it to work.

Configuring Pushbullet

The first thing you have to do is install Pushbullet on your Android device from the Play Store. You will be prompted to sign in with Google or Facebook. You will be asked to enable Pushbullet so that you can see your phone’s notifications on your computer. It will then ask that you grant it access to your phone and contacts so that it can mirror incoming calls. Also, you will then be asked to enable the app to text from your computer or tablet. After enabling the permissions, visit pushbullet.com on your computer and install the app on your computer. On your computer, you will be asked to sign in with what you used on your phone
