Texter Ace : Excel to SMS

Texter Ace is an app that lets you upload an excel file OR link to a public Google Sheet and send many texts! *FEATURES* - Upload excel into your app - Insert the Google Sheets link from a public sheet - Send texts to the telephone numbers in the excel - Multi/Dual SIM phones send using the default texting SIM in the settings - Normal texts sent out are plain text - Texts are charged by the network operator at the normal rate - Contacts will receive the message as if it is from you. A text message will be saved in the text. *USAGE* The excel file should have: - A header row (the first row is not read) - two columns: telephone number & message text (any other column is not read) -The telephone numbers can lack a country code. In which case either your phones dialing-assistant OR your network operator will prefix it before sending. We however advise having a country code e.g. 250788310044. -In both excel & Google sheets, it is not possible to add a + to a numeral as this is interpreted as a calculation. However, you can put an apostrophe before the numeral to interpret this as a text (This improves the excel experience). *USE CASES* - A property manager want to send out bills to residents via text. Using excel functions, they can create texts with custom balances. - A members association wants to text its members about an upcoming event. Using spreadsheet/excel functions, they can customize each persons name. - A marketer would like to send out a first promotion text to a group of a maximum of 500 people. The app allows them to send out messages on the company phone without having to store each person as a contact. Avoid registration such as needed with Twilio. *PRIVACY* The app does not store any data or transmit any data beyond the texts sent.
