Pushbullet’s ‘Pro’ syncing service is stuff that used to be free
Pushbullet, the mighty app that lets you sync notifications, links, photos and SMS between your phone and computer, has just announced that it will be offering a Pro tier. But here’s the kicker: paying $4.99 a month or $39.99 annually doesn’t actually buy you anything new (other than supporting its developer’s needs for things like food and shelter). A blog post announcing the changes tried to justify the move, but its explanations seem oddly close to threats. “We could have kept Pushbullet completely free, following the path of many free services by showing ads and selling data to make money. We don’t want to do that.” And we certainly hope they don’t have to!
