☑ File Browsing

☑ Wallpaper
Quickly set your Android or PC wallpaper while browsing the web in Chrome

☑ Location
Find your Android device by getting its location or making it ring really loud

☑ Deep Tasker Integration
Make Join your own by pushing stuff from Tasker, changing any of the app's settings and querying your devices. You can totally make your own customized Join app if you want :)

☑ End-to-end encryption
Join can send any sensitive data encrypted if you set a password

☑ Google Drive as storage
Your personal data (like your SMS messages for example) is kept privately on your Google Drive. Shared files are also kept there so that you can easily access them later.


Join uses a server on Google App Engine (https://cloud.google.com/appengine/) to optimize and simplify message pushing from device to device.

Ratings and reviews

I've used many clipboard apps for many months. When I found this accidentally on a forum, I was shocked at all the features it had, and I had to pay the dev. It a better job at syncing the clipboard with other devices. Copy from one device and in a second or less you can already use paste on the second device.

It kind of works for sending texts from a pc but not very well. Even though I use it rather frequently, the texts usually don't show up on the app. The last text on the app (which should be the most recent) was sent 7 months ago. I can't even see the text I just sent, nor the reply which showed up momentarily as a pc notification. The app seems to hold onto image texts that say "View Image." And yeah, you can't see the images.

One of the apps that is so useful to me. There are a few bugs but manageable like sending clipboard and files are not working on your first try every time you use it, and it would be nice to have a progress bar whenever your transferring files and clipboards etc.., sometimes I don't know if I have to repeat them so I just waited and when I waited long enough that's my que that I have to repeat it again. Looking forward for the upcoming updates.
