With Pushbullet + IFTTT you can turn anything in your life into a notification. This was already an incredibly awesome feature, but with the release of IFTTT for Android it’s even better. Pushbullet recently released a channel for IFTTT. There are tons of situations where this can come in handy. The notification will be waiting for you to take action on it. The nice thing about Pushbullet is it won’t automatically open the apps like Chrome to Phone did.

When you send links from certain websites, such as Google Maps or YouTube, to Android they will open in their respective apps. Pushbullet also gives you the ability to send stuff from your phone to your PC with Android’s built-in sharing feature. Chrome to Phone was good at sending links from Chrome to Android, but Pushbullet can do much more than that. You can share URLs, photos, notes, APKs, videos, and many other file types. So you might expect it to be able to send stuff to other devices. Like we mentioned above, at its core Pushbullet is basically a souped-up Chrome to Phone. If you’re worried about the notification mirroring using data you can set it to only mirror while connected to WiFi. For example, you might not care to see when an app is auto-updating in the Play Store. You can turn notification mirroring on or off for specific apps.

Every device you install it on becomes a destination that you can “push” things to.

Pushbullet is Chrome to Phone on steroids. It can be installed on Android, iOS, Chrome, and Firefox.
