    I sent a few tabs from my desktop to my phone using the "Send Tab" function in the Chrome extension. When I unlocked my phone, none of the tabs had appeared. Trying to push them again with the phone unlocked did actually push them, but a few repeated tests showed that tabs are only pushed in this manner when the phone is unlocked, making that a little less useful.

    Not sure if this is a bug, a limitation of the API, or perhaps even by design. Would be great if we were able to push from desktop to phone without the phone having to be unlocked to receive them, though.

    Ok, for the next version Join will create a notification if your phone is locked and will directly open the tab if it's unlocked. Hope this helps :)
