Really well written app! Does exactly what it claims to do, and works really well. Now I don't need to use my phone when I need to send a quick text and I'm on the computer. Great job!

Easy computer texting with issues Easily worked around issues This is an awesome app. It makes texting while at a computer too easy. I am one step ahead of the group due to typing speed 60+ and I don't even thing speech to text can compete with that. I love when I think a program would be great and should exist.....and I find it! Downfalls: - Account occassionally disconnects, but reconnecting takes about 20 seconds with the cell phone scanner - If friends don't have unlimited text, one can easily send way more than one text

Ok, but..... Simple app, but that's where it stops. To start with, when you first install, it's only a 30 day trial. To continue using it, you have to buy it and also install a QR scanner app. No online or e-mail support, only FAQ page. Each time I go to use it, I have to re-establish the link between my browser and the phone app. Not evident that to send a group msg, you have to hold the Ctrl key. If you don't, each recipient opens a new browser window, which can get confusing. The web interface isn't too complicated, but there other apps with much cleaner, crisp interfaces. One the plus side, you are not limited to 10 recipients at a time, which is a nice feature. Also, at least this app is better than the default Texting app on Android phones. Overall, there are much better, cleaner apps out there that are free and easy to use.
