App not working

I see that there is the same issue reported by someone in February that is not resolved.
After transferring the message from my computer to the phone, the send message on the phone does not work.
Please address this issue

Possible Bug on 14.4

Dear developers. I wanna thank you for investing on the app and making it so awesome. But I notice that there might be a potential bug. When I have transferred the message on the phone what happens is I can’t click on the sent button. The recipients seemed to be overlayed on top of the message. I can’t press the send icon. Any comments or advices?

I tried using an external keyboard and sometimes I can use the tab button but I am helpless if I don’t have the external or additional accessory.

Help please.

Does exactly what I need it to do, and does it well

I often need to send large SMS messages to groups of people, so being able to type this on my Mac keyboard rather than my phone screen makes life so much easier. Negative reviews of this app I have seen are mostly unfair - yes you need to have the app opened on your phone and connected to the same wifi as your computer, it says that in the app description. I had one technical problem with the "SMS Sender” desktop app yesterday (my first ever, after many months) and contacted support, I had my reply in hours and this completely rectified my problem. Highly recommended!

Works Great

Works as advertised. Can connect with your contacts and can send to multiple recipients.

SMS Client

it was a fantastic app. Until Apple separated the two apps SMS Client and SMS Sender in their infinite wisdom.
Now those of us who enjoy the app are stuck in limbo….
Way to go APPLE
