Hello Product Hunt! We're excited to launch Crono 3.0, a productivity app that keeps you updated with your phone messages and notifications. If you are someone who wants to maintain the workflow on a single screen (desktop) and also want to stay on top of your notifications, Crono will make your life easier. After conducting user research, we have come with new features like SMS texting, sharing tabs between phone and PC, and native apps for Mac and Windows in this launch. After talking to hundreds of our users, we surfaced the most painful problems and polished the user experience. With the latest update you can: ★ Send and receive SMS on your desktop ★ Open notifications on the desktop ★ Share tabs between phone and PC ★ Join meetings directly from Crono ★ Native apps for Mac and Windows We worked closely with our users over the past few months to iterate on solutions to different pain points of our users, and we feel that these features provide meaningful value. So, we present Crono 3.0 to you. We know there's a lot we can improve on, so we'd love your feedback!

@batraabhishek Hi Abhishek! I love what you have built. Curious to know what's ahead in the roadmap?
Abhishek Batra
Thanks, @prakharshivam, Right now Crono support only SMS, We plan to integrate every popular chatting application into Crono. Post this; we will be launching multi devise support (multiple devices on one desktop client). If this keeps us floating, we plan to expand Crono to iOS as well.

@batraabhishek Sounds Great! Can't wait to try out these features soon. All the best to the Crono team.

What is the difference between this and what Windows 10 already provides for free? Even the new Samsung phones are integrating with Windows.

Hey! Super excited to try this out! I downloaded the app for MacOS, but I'm unable to connect to my phone (I have an iPhone.) Is there any other way to connect? @batraabhishek

Crono is awesome. As much as I love Apple products, for phones they are just becoming too expensive. Having Crono makes my life easier and I upgraded as well. I would love being able to pick up phone calls, or make them. That would be awesome.

Love Crono, have been using it for several months now. Best feature for me is being able to read WhatsApp messages without the dreaded 'blue tick' showing up. None of that "you read it but didn't reply" nonsense. haha! I also love that it shows the Zoom link on calendar notifications so its one click and I'm in. No hunting around for the calendar app to find it anymore. My only concern was privacy but this was answered on a recent Reddit post - "Every notification is encrypted, that said for Crono servers it is just gibberish text.". Great job @batraabhishek ! Good luck on PH.

Thank a lot @lukestacey85 for your words. WhatsApp "Blue tick" is surely a relationship killer 😅. Ping me anytime on reddit or email, if you face any issue.

I have been using Crono for over 2 years. And I must say that I have lost track of my smartphone whenever I start working on my laptop. I had once forgotten my phone at home, but thanks to Crono, I was always updated on messages coming on my phone.

I have been using crono since the early days and can surely say it's one of the best apps for me. Saves a lot of time and hassle for switching between multiple devices and I never miss any important update. Also, the new features are amazing.

@punit_gupta1 Thank you for your review 😁

Been using this for a couple of weeks (mac with an Oppo Reno). Works really well, can highly recommend it.

This is one of my favorite products to use across all my devices. It keeps me up-to-date on my notifications and is a good value for the price in my opinion. I noticed the developers are very active, listen carefully to their users and implement changes frequently. It's a genuinely great product.

Been using Crono for past 6 months, hands down best piece of software to reduce phone distractions without missing important updates. Excited about the new features!
