SMS8.io

SMS8 lets you send text messages from the SIM already in your iPhone & iPad, composed from your computer instead of your handset. Write a message in your SMS8 dashboard — or trigger it from your own CRM or application through the SMS8 API — and your paired phone sends it as a normal text from your real number. Your customer sees the number they already have saved for you, and they can reply to it the way they'd reply to anyone. WHAT YOU CAN DO WITH SMS8 Compose a text on your laptop and have your paired phone send it Trigger messages from your own software using the SMS8 API Send to a saved contact or a list you've built in your account Choose which SIM sends on dual-SIM devices Get delivery status back in your dashboard and on your webhook Save contacts, tag them, and group them for repeat sends Review a log of what your device has sent, with timestamps and status WHAT PEOPLE SEND WITH SMS8 Order confirmations when a sale goes through Booking and appointment confirmations, plus the reminder the day before Delivery and pickup updates as a job moves through your workflow Alerts your system raises — a failed job, a low stock level, a form submission Internal notifications to your own staff One-off messages to a customer who's easier to reach by text than by call MADE FOR EVERYDAY USE Developers who need real SMS delivery for notifications, alerts and testing without opening a carrier gateway account Shop owners sending order updates and appointment reminders from their own number Independent professionals — real estate, coaches, mechanics, tutors — sending reminders from a desk instead of a keypad Small teams dispatching messages from one shared business phone HOW IT WORKS Install SMS8 and sign in with your SMS8 account Grant SMS sending permission — you'll see a plain explanation before the request Open sms8.io on your computer to compose and send, or connect your own software with an API key YOUR NUMBER, YOUR MESSAGES Because the app uses the SIM already in your phone, recipients see your real phone number and your normal SIM plan applies. Nothing is rented, rerouted or rebranded — no shared short codes, no unfamiliar sender IDs, and no per-message gateway pricing layered on top of the plan you already pay for. WHAT SMS8 DOES NOT ACCESS SMS8 does not read, receive or intercept incoming messages SMS8 does not access your call log SMS8 does not read your device contacts — contacts live in your SMS8 account, added by you No ads, no third-party trackers, no analytics SDKs PERMISSIONS SMS8 requests one sensitive permission: sending SMS. It is used only to dispatch the messages you create in your own account. You'll see an in-app explanation before the request, and you can decline. A foreground service keeps the send queue running while the app is in the background. WHY PICK SMS8 Your own phone number, not a shared short code Sends on your existing SIM plan API and webhooks for your own applications Works with the phone you already carry — no extra hardware Small, focused app SUPPORT Email support@sms8.io or open a ticket in your account.
