Text your whole group — and finally know who actually got it. batchrunner is the group texter that tracks every send. Most apps blast your message and leave you wondering "did everyone get it?" batchrunner gives you a live ledger that marks each person off, one by one — so you always know who received it and who didn't. WHO IT'S FOR Organizers, coaches, realtors, small businesses, club and community admins — anyone who texts the same group of people and needs it to actually land. WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT - See who got it. A live send ledger: sent, remaining, skipped — per person. - Resume anytime. Lose signal or close the app mid-send? Pick up exactly where you left off. Force-quit safe. - Personalized, not generic. Mail-merge each person's first name, last name, or company so every text reads one-to-one. - Honest about iOS. iPhone can't auto-send texts — so we don't pretend. batchrunner guides you batch by batch and marks everyone off when you're back. FEATURES - Contact groups from your address book or CSV import - Mail-merge templates with first name, last name, company + live "as they'll see it" preview - 100 ready-to-send message templates across 8 categories, with smart search - Carrier-safe batches so your messages actually go through - Send again in one tap from your history - Recurring reminders, weekly or monthly, so you never forget the regular text — we remind you at the time, you tap Send HOW IT WORKS batchrunner sends through your iPhone's Messages app — from your own number, to your own contacts. You tap Send (that's iOS, not us), and batchrunner marks each recipient off in the ledger. No server, no surprise charges, and your contacts stay on your device. FREE & PRO Free covers smaller sends plus the full batch runner and ledger. Pro removes the recipient cap and unlocks unlimited groups and templates, the 100-template library, recurring reminders, and CSV import. PRIVACY Your contacts and messages stay on your device — we never upload them. No ads, no cross-app tracking. (Anonymous usage stats only, to improve the app.) Text the group.
