Bailey Posted March 9, 2018 Posted March 9, 2018 It's not that we don't want too. It's that we can't. It requires daemon access to the server.
wolstech Posted March 9, 2018 Posted March 9, 2018 It's not possible to do this for free. The gateway software is free, but the interface to the actual cell network to transmit the messages costs money. Sadly, there's a reason that this doesn't exist for free, and why the ones that do offer free access have tiny limits on them (they need the money from paid customers because offering such a service is surprisingly expensive). Beside, most major cell phone companies already offer an email->SMS interface for free anyway, which will work with any software that can already send email. Provided you know the user's cell phone company and their phone number (both of which you can just ask for on your site), you can send emails that, and they arrive on the user's phone as an SMS.
Krydos Posted March 10, 2018 Posted March 10, 2018 Check out https://voice.google.com/ I've sent text messages for free through that for years. I even wrote some code so that scripts can send out sms too. I imagine if I was to start sending thousands of texts I would probably get banned, but for a few now and then it works.
