Great app all around. Will hold off on 5 Star because of one annoying thing. When I type in a phone number it does not break it out with the area code parenthese and spaces. It remains a string of 10 digits with no spacing. I have to move the cursor down to the message […]

Very good app. I chose mysms because I can view text from my PC or Chromebook browser easily. The app has been reliable and had very little problem. It also is subjected to the limitation of SMS. As an SMS and MMS only app that is prob pretty typical. One feature I would like to […]

** update Recentlt since the past two updates my texts no longer sync to the compiter for some reason, at least not nearly close to real time . *** previous post I’ve been using this app for years. It really is a fantastic way to text from your computer or tablet using your phone number. […]

It’s ok. It worked pretty well with Windows 8, but the Windows 10 APP definitely needs development. Update : the website version of mysms works great. I no longer run the desktop app, just use the website. Unfortunately, with a recent Android update, the phone version now sucks. Group and media messages don’t come through. […]

Free and Affordable option for texting from your desktop. Have the paid version now. Only thing keeping it from 5 star is there is a glitch when I’m sending text on my computer where I have to add a 2nd number to get it to send. Somewhere along the way this started. It wasn’t always […]

Completely useless on a OnePlus 7 Pro. I have followed the guides and knowledge base articles on the support site. Despite this, messages almost never sync. The interface design is archaic and for the cost, I feel pretty burned. Maybe it works better on other phones, but if you have a OnePlus device, I would […]

I’ve been a paying ($10/yr) customer for at least a couple of years, but am now dumping it and have uninstalled it. 1) More and more it’s taking longer to send a text- up to 5 min but usually at least 2 min. Troubleshooting and re-installing no help. Sending from phone alone when I’m away […]

This app has been so helpful to me. I find that writing on my phone is terribly slow, so I love this option of using my computer (where I’m working all day) to easily send/receive messages. The app has a few quirks, like putting long messages out of order, requiring manual sync now and then, […]

I use it all the time. It does have two annoying bugs, one they acknowledge but they dont fix it and the other they dont even acknowledge. They are 1-Messages are duplicated on the desktop program 2-It does not handle group messages properly. Update 6/11/19. The program often is missing texts that appear on the […]

Update. I uninstalled this a year or so ago due to conflict. Today I went to install again, and something was screwy in the setup process/web page and app responses. But they got me charged for Premium $10.99 although I wasn’t trying for that. Called provider, got that refunded. From 5 star to 1 star. […]

There are several inconsistency with this app such as notifications and messages not syncing on phone and PC, texts not showing up, and sms/mms texts being mixed up, sending text via computer and it fails without notifying you on either phone or desktop, and much more of these small errors that really add up. It’s […]

I’ve been using this for over a year with no issues at all. All of a sudden, without any explanation I’m unable to send to anyone but my incoming is just fine. I’ve checked my premium subscription and its just been renewed a month ago. Dealing with their support is nearly impossible. Keep getting automated […]

Generally, I like the app. However, I have a complaint about the reliability of the texts being sent (same issue I had with Pulse and Mighty Text). Occasionally, I’ll send a text, and the screen says it’s been sent, but the recipient never gets it. So now, when I don’t get a response from the […]

This app USED to be my go-to syncing / texting app. Used to be rock-solid. Now it seems to be very glitchy – almost unusable. In both sending and receiving, there are some messages that get repeated 3 or 4 times. Very annoying. Then there are all the messages that don’t get sent or those […]

Very convenient, easy to compose, edit, or search messages using computer keyboard instead of tiny phone screen. Discreet, can send/reply to SMS during company meetings, other times when it might not seem appropriate to be staring at your phone and/or typing on it. IMPROVEMENTS needed: the feature to make separate notifications for group messaging does […]

Love the way i can sync messages between devices. However, the block feature only blocks 1-on-1 messages. A blocked user can still message you if its part of a group text. Also, the app can be slightly sluggish on PC and it lacks some of the features that more popular messaging apps have. But for […]

$10 – wasted. Does not work well at all. Messages don’t sync between phone and app. Tried using the app on the phone and I was receiving notifications of new messages but they weren’t on the MySMS app. Switched back to the stock messaging app and there they were. Tried using the FAQ on thier […]

I want to like this app, but I’m having quite a few problems. The 3 biggest issues that I’m having are: individual text messages, both sms and mms, are showing up in the wrong threads (only on mysms on my computer – they are correct in Textra on my phone), known contacts will suddenly appear […]

It was okay- sometimes it doesn’t sync or download multimedia, but it was good enough that I had a subscription. But it was impossible to renew recently even though I tried multiple payment methods that work with other subscriptions without issue. Contacted support and no response. If they don’t care about collecting my money, they […]

It’s great that you can reply from your computer. However, on the phone it’s somewhat slow to open a message, old or new. Also, it’s not very friendly with group message notifications. Don’t hit the notification ribbon, it will say “message not found.” Instead, go to the actual messages and open it there.
