Comment on Show HN: AppSMS – make apps for people without smartphones

This is a neat idea. Why would i use this vs. Twilio? Just curious.

Thanks.

To use something like Twilio, you'd have to pay. It's not immediately apparent, but this operates entirely for free, using the 'email to SMS' bridge that all major carriers already have. At some point I'll open-source it, but essentially, it just replies to emails using SMTP.
