FAQ – SMSMobileAPI

Yes, it is possible to send SMS without using the phone directly. You just need to have the application installed on your phone and ensure that the phone is connected to the internet to make the connection possible. Your phone can even be physically located in another country as long as you use the API key associated with your phone; everything will work.
Yes, our API and service do not impose any limits on the number of SMS messages sent via requests.
SMS messages are transmitted directly from your mobile phone using the mobile plan that is currently active on the device. This functionality is enabled by our application, which needs to be installed on your mobile phone. Our app integrates seamlessly with your phone's existing SMS capabilities, ensuring messages are dispatched efficiently without the need for manual intervention.
In the settings of the application installed on your phone, there is a checkbox that allows you to specify whether SMS sent from our API should be stored in our databases or not. If you decide not to store the sent SMS, then there will be no trace of the sent messages! Confidentiality is thus guaranteed, unlike our competitors or SMS providers who keep a lifetime record of the SMS sent on your behalf.
There is no hard limit on the number of messages you can send. However, to prevent overloading your phone's memory and maintaining smooth communication with our server, we have implemented a timer to regulate the dispatch rate of messages. This ensures that our service runs optimally without compromising your device's performance or the integrity of message delivery.
Yes, our service is designed to operate even when the application is not the active screen on your mobile phone. However, to manage your device's memory more effectively and ensure smooth operation, the interval between sending two SMS messages is slightly longer when the app is running in the background.
Absolutely not! Your phone number is never used for any purpose other than the one you have explicitly consented to. We value your privacy and confidentiality, ensuring that your personal information is handled with the utmost care and respect.

Yes, our application facilitates access to received SMS messages through a simple HTTP request. This feature allows for the efficient listing and retrieval of SMS messages directly within the app, providing users with a comprehensive messaging solution that covers both sending and receiving functionalities. Our platform ensures that users can manage their messages seamlessly, enhancing the overall user experience by integrating advanced communication features within a single application.
SMSMobileAPI distinguishes itself from other SMS services by connecting your own SIM card to the internet, enabling you to send SMS messages via a secure HTTP request. This approach offers several unique advantages:

You utilize your own mobile plan, ensuring that there are no extra costs beyond what you already pay for your mobile services.
The SMS messages are sent from a number that belongs to you, enhancing trust and recognition among your recipients.
There's no need to rely on an unknown intermediary to dispatch your messages, providing you with greater control and security.
You have the freedom to determine the frequency and timing of your message dispatches, allowing for precise scheduling according to your needs.
For professionals, this means your clients receive SMS messages from your number, facilitating direct responses and fostering a more personal connection.

This setup not only optimizes costs and personalizes communication but also enhances the credibility and effectiveness of your messaging campaigns.
Yes, our application is designed to function as if a human were manually typing out the SMS from your phone, regardless of the country. This universal design approach ensures that our service can be utilized in any location around the world, provided that you have an active mobile plan and internet connectivity. Our system emulates the natural process of sending SMS messages, making it globally compatible and efficient. This allows users from different geographical regions to leverage our service for sending SMS messages seamlessly, without being limited by their location.
Yes, absolutely! The physical location from where you initiate the HTTP request does not affect the functionality of our service. The only requirement is that your phone must be connected to a network. By launching a simple HTTP request, you inform your phone to send an SMS. This feature highlights the flexibility and global accessibility of our service, ensuring that you can control SMS sending from any location worldwide, as long as your device has network connectivity. This capability is particularly useful for users who need to manage communications across different time zones or while traveling.
The mobile application is 100% identical, whether it is downloaded directly as an APK or through Google Play. We offer the option to download the APK directly, bypassing Google Play, in instances where the user does not have a Google account or prefers not to create one.

For example: Some users utilize a phone exclusively for sending text messages, on which no applications are installed and no Google account is configured. In such instances, downloading the APK directly becomes the solution.
Yes, this app does not alter the potential use of your phone in any way. It does not block or hinder your normal usage. The service runs in the background without interfering with your activity.
Tip: You can activate a mode that requires your phone to stay focused on the smsMobileApi app, for instance, when you dedicate a phone specifically for the mobile application.
