Send SMS

As you type in the number, name, alias or group alias, Messenger Touch2TXT accesses your online address books to

You can select the desired recipient(s) from the dropdown shown just by touching them. If you want to send to more than one recipient, use a comma (,) between each entry.

Once you have typed your message, just click to send – it’s as simple as that!

Review Message Log

Chat-bubble messaging just got a whole lot better! Our chat bubbles are fully threaded, unlike those on a mobile handset. Linked conversations between multiple recipients are grouped together just like they should be.

This shows up to the last 40 messages sent via all methods (e.g. SMS via email, online, OMS, API, Messenger Touch2TXT).

You can change the amount of messages shown under the display options. Click on individual messages to show the threaded conversation.

Notifications

Notifications will appear within Messenger Touch2TXT of new messages and other important events, these will popup and then disappear after a few seconds.

Native notifications for the Android platform are in Beta testing, providing an experience that mirrors that of the handset but without the hassles of backing up messages, expensive international texting etc. If you would like to Beta test this, please contact sales.

Addressbook

We'll be adding exciting Address book features to Messenger Touch2TXT in the future, but for now the autocompleter and reverse name lookups reflect the contacts you have inside your Messenger Address book, so you can use your company contacts on the go.
