The idea is also to save money!!!! I use Gmail using Google voice - send and receive email, SMS, IM, audio calls, video calls - all in one place - from my phones and anybody's computer - to individuals or groups - free. What am I missing? Why should I change? Don't think you are missing a thing as long as you live in USA. The rest of us are looking for viable solutions I dont own an android device and not in the USA but about 13 to 14 hours im on Computer!
There is also one in the Google Chrome webstore. Dedicated phone number, voicemail, unlimited texting What's not to like? Get any smart phone with Viber compatibility. Then you can use it on both, including voice and video! Kies Air came with my android phone. It allows the user to send and receive SMS on one's computer.
It also allows the user to access your phone's photographs and videos.
Pinger is a computer app that I think deservers some attention Not sure about other countries. Thanks for this post. I was getting ready to whine "what about those of us who have iPhones and iPads? I now see I have some choices. My Apple iMessage works quite well, computer OR phone.
Please don't become too biased, there are many of us who are Mac users that love the way the iOS shares many applications. My Apple iMessage works quite well, computer of phone. I like the first two choices -- just wish there was something like it for iPhone. I've used google voice for a long time, but with the lack of development, and lack of integration on the iphone, I've had to give it up. I don't download anything even though I frequently send SMS.
Just use my email program to send to someone's cell phone: If they're not on Verizon, change the domain accordingly. I'm surprised DeskSMS isn't listed. It's a great app which also allows you to check your phone's messages. The only thing you need is a Google account and then you can receive your messages through Google Talk or the Google Chrome add-on. I use Google Voice, the text from computer is nice but I use google voice as my main number and love that you can mark a phone number as spam and never hear my phone ring when they call again.
I could get a lot more said in less time by voice than by texting, and it would be a lot cheaper - and stave off Repetitive Motion Syndrome at least for a while longer! I agree talk is a lot easier than send a lot texts.
And if you need send so many texts, just get your friend on any of the message apps. One or even a few text messages are enough. But if you're going to send that many texts at a half-minute a text, you can get a lot more said in less time using voice and it would probably be cheaper, not to mention putting off Repetitive Motion Syndrome RMS at least for a little while. Zipwhip works well, and for simply sending T-Mobile, it is tmomail.
Alltel, the number is message. Sprint it is messaging. While it is free to send messages this way, standard text message rates apply to recipients because the messages are delivered as ordinary texts. Much easier to use and it has its own download for your computer, so that you will be notified with a popup and you can write messages without opening your browser. When needed, you also have access to all your messages, by opening a browser to view them. When you use your browser, it works the same as Mighty Text. Go a ahead and try it. I think you'll like it.
I liked Motorola invention of its webtop lapdoc. The phone I have made by Motorola turns into a mini laptop and desktop computer. Technically my Motorola phone has two operating systems on it.
One partition runs Android, while on the other partition runs a lite version of Linux for the Webtop. Too bad Motorola killed the webtop. Noting is stored on the tablet as both devices are connected using a secured encrypted blue tooth connection. All data a streamed encrypted from the BlackBerry phone to the tablet. Motorola didn't really "kill" webtop, just the new version runs as the tablet version of Android.
Not as cool, but it's still fun to brag to those who don't have Moto ;.
I quite like 3CX Android Remote. The app runs a server off your phone like the others listed, and it tells you your device IP address and a port number. You can access this server through any web browser, no extra software needed. It can be configured with a username and password for extra security. The app let's you check your messages, use the web browser, has a file browser, and with root access you can remote control your phone I couldn't, but the feature is present as well as access the camera remotely.
I use the Mighty Text. I do not have to keep my phone in the same room with me anymore. I like when it tells me I need to charge my phone too.
I'm a big MightyText fan too. PhoneSpector is among the latest, cutting edge utility apps that can be used to. More powerful and easier to use and setup, it has become the choice of thousands who need to spy on a cell phone. It has no monthly fees.
Once the installation is finished you can log into the control panel and begin receiving data from the target phone. If you did not root the target phone there can be issues with the app until you root the phone. Although when I'm on VPN for work, my employer blocks access. But if you're going to send that many texts at a half-minute a text, you can get a lot more said in less time using voice and it would probably be cheaper, not to mention putting off Repetitive Motion Syndrome RMS at least for a little while. Have you noticed that your partner is unusual? Good option for any phone.

Tried and true and up to date to work with the all Androids and iPhones. For people wanting to get information from an Android phone or tablet, I have not reviewed a better product than Auto Forward with the exception of DDI, above. Auto Forward is every bit as powerful as DDI and Highster and will easily get the job done regardless of the phone you are spying on.
The real best thing about Auto Forward is how easy it is to use. I think my dog could use this app if he could use a keyboard! So, how do you sort through the junk? Each of the programs below is capable of retrieving more than just text messages from a cell phone or tablet. These programs are very powerful and will enable you to spy on a mobile device much like any government or private investigator might and should be used only for legal purposes.
PhoneSpector is my personal choice for the best spy app on the market. It represents the departure from traditional spy apps to a more powerful, in-depth and easy-to-use app that is a better fit for todays mobile devices. Superb for spying on text messages and iMessages, you will not find a better text spy app, or cell phone spy app than PhoneSpector. Highster Mobile is an SMS tracker and text message spy software that has been on the market for nearly 8 years.

A superior text message spy, Highster Mobile not only enables a user to retrieve new text messages from any cell phone, it will also extract old and deleted text messages as well. The astonishing thing is that you can do all this without actually having the phone in your possession. It is not uncommon for users to report the extraction of text messages from up to one-year-old. If you are spying on a an iPhone and you are either unwilling or unable to jailbreak it, Highster Mobile is for you! Their No-Jailbreak program is tops in the industry and, in my opinion, is by far the easiest to use and most powerful.
I found that it captures more data, in less time, than any of the competing programs. Access to the monitored device is not necessary. Activation is pretty fast and fairly simple. I used the OTA over-the-air method to install the program, which allows for the app to be downloaded using only a WiFi connection.
I entered my license key, then the telephone number of the phone I wanted see text messages from. I saw the content of each text, the date and time of the message and the phone number to which is was sent or received. I was pleased to see that it worked so well. Any person who buys this program can actually call the number on the website and speak to a live person. The other is Auto Forward Spy. It also comes with free lifetime upgrades so you never have to buy another SMS text tracking program again. It allows users to view a targeted devices browser history, spy on text messages, take photos remotely and much more all without having the phone in your possession.
Excellent customer support with LIVE people answering the phone.
Of course, I called just to see if real people would actually answer the phone and if they knew what they were talking about, which they did. I was very pleased with how helpful they were. Good option for any phone. It will extract iMessages and text messages from all iPhones and iPads. To use the no-jailbreak solution you do not need to install any software to the target phone. Data from the iPhone or iPad is extracted and displayed in your user account which can be viewed from your cell phone, tablet or computer.
