Restrict Unsent SMS Text to its Message Thread
Currently entered text (an unsent SMS message) persists when navigating between different contact threads on the web portal. This causes a high risk of accidentally sending sms text to the wrong person--just did this!
- If SMS text is entered but not sent have it only appear for that contact as a sort of 'draft'. Even just clearing the text when navigating between threads would also be preferable to current implementation

Improve Device Naming
Device naming is currently really annoying IMO so here is how I'd fix it.
- Prevent devices receiving the same name.
- Expand grouping system to allow custom groups.
- Add device auto naming system based on device group.
Preventing duplicate names is a good idea as it's currently possible to get into a situation where you have two devices named the same and can't push to just one of them. While its great you can push to multiple devices, there are better ways to implement this functionality. Custom groups would allow devices to be grouped more logically than the current name-them-all-the-same tactic.

Allow ads but only for WiFi
I'm cool with supporting the developer with ad use but I wish there was a way to allow ads only when on WiFi.

Create an iOS version of Join
Create a Join client for iOS so that it can run on iPhones and iPads.

Compatibility with Signal database
Signal is a secured messenger by Open Whisper Systems. Join successfully forwards the message to the PC and sends responses...but it doesn't seem to add the responses to the Signal message database. FYI Signal is open source, and can be found here (if it helps) https://github.com/WhisperSystems/Signal-Android

Add muting for specific SMS recipients
It would be great if you added a way to mute specific people from the SMS screen. If I mute someone on my phone, my phone won't notify me but my join extension in Chrome still detects a new message and displays it. If we could mute directly from the join app, we would still receive the messages from the muted person (which is fine, it's a mute, not a block), but they wouldn't disturb us.
-
Option to hide specific actions for Devices
I don't use some of the more niche options in Join like the "Toggle Screen Capture" or "Open PC Clipboard on Device". From a UI perspective, it would be be helpful if I could hide options in the Chrome app across devices from the Chrome settings page.
-
Option to Hide Specific or all Groups
I don't generally use the groups, and have many devices. I would like to have the option to hide/show groups from the Chrome and Android App settings.
-
Master ON/OFF switch.
Master ON OFF switch to turn JOIN on or off. Would come handy in certain situations (ie on holidays, roaming, etc etc).

Control desktop mouse and keyboard through the phone
So, KDE Connect has this function and I find it quite handy specially for presentations. Basically it shows a white area where we can move our finger and the mouse pointer in the computer moves too.
-
Allow persistent notification for podcast players to not show pop up
Some apps like Beyondpod frequently updates itself to show # of minutes remaining in the podcast. The pop up notifications on desktop become a bit too much. But the player control is still very convenient.
-
Clicking Buttons etc should show a confirmation animation of some type
In Chrome Extension I need to know that the action has been acknowledged.
-
Smileys for notification replies
It would be nice to have smileys for replying to notifications from WhatsApp or other messengers.

Texting from Facebook chat windows
I am slowly transitioning from MightyText to Join and the one feature keeping me on MightyText right now is their ability to see and reply to messages inside of Facebook through the chat windows:
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/sms-from-gmail-facebook-m/iffdacemhfpnchinokehhnppllonacfj
Would it be possible to implement this?
-
Replying/Texting window always on top
When using the Join chrome extension replying window or sending a text window, the moment you touch the chrome browser with your mouse, the replying/text window disappear in the background which can be access only if i minimize the chrome browser window. Making that window always on top will makes life easier i would think.
-
Remote file browsing
This is a feature from Pushbullet that I think would be nice to have, if possible. The idea is to remotely browse your phone's file system with the possibility of downloading or uploading files.
-
Automatically delete sent files from Drive after they've been downloaded on receiving device
When sending something from device A to device B, the files will be stored indefinitely in my Google Drive unless I manually delete them. Would be great if the file storage were only temporary, i.e. if the files were auto-removed as soon as the receiving device had successfully downloaded them.
-
Option to disable Join's context menu item in Chrome
Every single other extension I use that supports Chrome's context menu has an option to disable that extension showing up in context menu except Join. Please give us an option to disable Join's context menu item.
