by GµårÐïåñ, 8 years agoConsider the 2 stars the pity for the fact that you started with a great concept and then ruined it with greed, lack of innovation and so much bugs that never get addressed. There is non-existent support and utter silence from the developers which means this is nothing more than a money grab or to make something to sell and they care nothing for its quality, reputation or functionality.
The FX addon as been broken for so long without any action that it has become a useless garbage that won't save any settings, keeps prompting for the E2E password and won't retain anything. It is a constant annoyance which far outweighs any worth. Another promising vision ruined by incompetent developers lacking any integrity or dignity.
You are replaceable by open source, clean, functional, efficient and TRULY FREE solutions that don't have so much gimmick (features that were free but now paid because they ran out of things to innovate) and play with their users (offering quota for referral and then giving you nothing). You showed your true colors very early on, which in a way I thank you - better to know now that you are unreliable and untrustworthy than later.
I won't mention the other immensely superior solutions because my review and the complaint about the software is legit and I don't want anything to distract from it. You can simply search for alternatives to this failure and find them in spades. I will however say, avoid AirDroid, they are woefully compromised, even in that condition they are superior to Push.
/EDIT: As of 56 this addon completely breaks, won't load anything at all and cannot even be reinstalled as Mozilla considers the package corrupt. So pathetic that after all this time knowing there is a problem with it and didn't fix it, now they just let it die altogether; if they have no respect for their own product why should anyone else frankly. They have effectively abandoned it and that shows their lack of integrity and makes them utterly untrustworthy.

- Rated 3 out of 5by silvatek, 9 months agoI've been using Pushbullet for years quite happily and tend to rely on it, but it refuses to add my new Windows 11 desktop computer to my device list. I cannot figure out why. So I've been forced to reduce my rating.

- Rated 5 out of 5by EroticBananaz, a year agoI've been using PB since like... I want to say highschool? I'm 26 now and will most likely continue using it as long as I am able to. I've only just recently noticed an issue with the Firefox extension. I'm not sure if this even is PB's fault, might be a Mozilla issue but I don't feel like testing it on multiple browsers right now. I'm rating 5 stars anyways. Whenever I paste an image from my clipboard into the text box via the toolbar the extension crashes and requires a full shut down and reboot of the browser. That is all. I love you PushBullet I'll never stop using you!! You guys should give me a lifetime premium subscription ;) Too broke these days haha. Kidding of course. Have a good one.

- Rated 4 out of 5by hortond00, 2 years agoGreat extension that I use almost everyday. The only thing that really bothers me is that every time Firefox updates, it breaks. Clicking the extension shows me a menu as if I'm logged out with no way to log in. I have to disable and then re-enable the extension to revive the functionality. This as been a problem for years so I'm not holding my breath for a solution

- Rated 1 out of 5by Punktir, 2 years ago$4,99/mo
A meaningless application with an inconvenient interface.
To copy an SMS text to the clipboard, a subscription for $4.99/mo is required
There are many more functional free ones. - Rated 4 out of 5by Amaryllis5967, 2 years ago
- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 17570561, 2 years agoThe app itself is great, on Chrome, but on Firefox some stuff doesn't work like instant push to device, file sending, which is pretty important.
- Rated 2 out of 5by A., 3 years agoIt doesn't work (anymore) on firefox, logging in will only log into the webpage, the addon stays logged out, making it also impossible to add the device. Is this extension abandoned or something?
- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 17595552, 3 years agoI really loved this app and used it for many years, but they no longer support iOS so when I bought a new phone I found out I couldn't use it anymore. The developer apparently has no plans to bring it back to iOS, so I'm forced to find an alternative. Very sad about this.
