KalSMS is a SMS/MMS gateway running entirely as an Android app.
<p>
It enables web services to send and receive SMS and MMS messages
by forwarding incoming messages to a server on the Internet, and sending
outgoing messages to other phones.
</p>
<p>
People with any type of mobile phone can send SMS and MMS to a phone
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).
</p>
<h2>Why KalSMS?</h2>
<p>
KalSMS can be used nearly anywhere in the world. In particular, it is useful
in countries where obtaining a local virtual phone number
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.
</p>
<h2>Price</h2>
<p>
KalSMS is free to install on as many phones as you'd like.
</p>
<p>
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.
</p>
<p>
Typically your organization will need only one phone running KalSMS in a
particular country. However, it is possible to use multiple phones to load-balance requests
for higher throughput, to offer different user services, or to serve different mobile networks.
