About

Templated Texts

Features
Read full description

Templated Texts helps you send individual text messages to members of a group you define in the Contacts app. - Compose texts with tokens for first name, last name, and full name, to personalize the text you're sending to each member of the group. - Modify individual messages as before they're sent. - Optionally attach an image to your texts. I built this app as part of my union's contract campaign, to help reduce the toil of sending texts as part of a text message phone tree. I hope you find it useful!
