This is a pretty big limitation for users who have used this service long term and have become comfortable with the functionality. Going forward you will only be able to send files up to 25MB, will have 2GB of storage space, and only send 100 messages through popular services like SMS, Whats App and Kik per month.

Obviously a service like this couldn’t stay free forever, but what many people take issue with is hiding previously free features behind a paywall.

Today PushBullet announced that you can pay either $3.99/month or $40/year for their new pro service. Like many start-ups, the service has started without any paid tiers for it’s customers. Many have wondered how PushBullet was eventually going to be profitable. It’s one of the first apps I install on my phone. These features are certainly something one can live without, but I find they make my life much easier and keep my notification tray much cleaner. If you get an email that you have no interest in, you can easily delete it from a prompt that pops up. In addition to those features, your notifications will show up within your browser and allow you to act on them. With PushBullet you’re able to push files, links and messages back and forth from your computer with optional end-to-end encryption. If you haven’t been introduced to PushBullet yet, you’re missing out.
