Show HN: An Email-to-iMessage Gateway
Mobile carriers have long supported email-to-SMS functionality, but in the United States, the big three (Verizon, T-Mobile, and AT&T) have deprecated these services. So a crop of commercial email-to-SMS services have sprung up, and one of my SaaS tools is exactly that.
But because SMS is so regulated now, and the 10DLC process is such a pain, and because I wanted to support international numbers, I embarked on making email-to-iMessage work, and I finally figured it out.
Try it now: Send an email to your-number@i.text.email.
If you have a non-U.S., non-Canadian number, be sure to include the country code.
U.S. Example: 2125551234@i.text.email U.K. Example: 447700900000@i.text.email India Example: 919876543210@i.text.email
Whatever you do, don't forget the "i"!
