KalSMS is a SMS/MMS gateway running entirely as an Android app.
|
2011-09-15 18:03:37 +00:00

It forwards incoming SMS and MMS messages to a web server on the Internet, and sends
|
|
|
|
|
outgoing messages from the web server to other phones.

People with any type of mobile phone can send SMS and MMS to a phone
|
2011-09-18 06:33:18 +00:00
|
|
|
running KalSMS, without needing their own Android phone.
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
It works wherever the phone can receive SMS messages and access the Internet
|
|
|
|
|
(via Wi-Fi or mobile data connection).

<h2>Why KalSMS?</h2>
|

|

KalSMS can be used to enable a web service to send and receive SMS and MMS messages
|
|
|
|
|
nearly anywhere in the world.
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
<p> In particular, it is useful in countries where obtaining a local virtual phone number
|
2011-09-18 06:33:18 +00:00
|
|
|
or SMS shortcode is difficult, expensive, or impossible. A phone running KalSMS
|
|
|
|
|
connects to the phone network in the same way as any other mobile phone,
|
|
|
|
|
so it can be set up without needing approval from anyone else.
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
KalSMS is designed to to be maintainable even when deployed in remote locations
|
|
|
|
|
that cannot easily be accessed by your organization's technical staff. KalSMS is simple
|
|
|
|
|
enough for non-technical users to do all setup and maintenance of deployed phones.

KalSMS is free to install on as many phones as you'd like.
|
2011-09-18 06:33:18 +00:00

|
|
|
In order to deploy KalSMS, you will need a messaging plan for your phone, and the phone itself.
|
|
|
|
|
KalSMS is compatible with many old or inexpensive Android phones, e.g. the LG GT540, currently $120 on Amazon.com.
|
|
|

2011-09-18 06:33:18 +00:00
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
Typically your organization will need only one phone running KalSMS in a
|
2011-09-19 03:45:09 +00:00
|
|
|
particular country. However, it is possible to use multiple phones to load-balance requests
|
2011-09-18 06:33:18 +00:00
|
|
|
for higher throughput, to offer different user services, or to serve different mobile networks.
