@Skyetel That looks neat, but shouldn't this be in the Self-Promotion instead of IT Discussion category?
My thoughts exactly.
-
Oops - my bad. I thought it should go into news. @scottalanmiller can I move this? or should I delete and recreate it?
To answer your question - it uses 80 and 443.

Well, that's the way to make me want a DID from @Skyetel, I can have my own SMS/MMC server.

Yeah, really useful for team chat support!

Any updates to this app? Any plans to update it or replace it? It's still VERY VERY basic.
A couple of things I could really use are:
- Import phone numbers and names
- Send "bulk" to the people I've entered.

It's a demo app, not really meant to be used. It's meant to show how to build your own tooling using their API.

Version 1.1 is going to be released in about 2 weeks. It will include:
- Upload Contacts via CSV
- Search - Ability to search through messages & contacts
- Automated image scaling for images that run larger than 1.5Mb
- Giphy Integration - Send Giphys in SMS!
- Send Emojis - Send Emojis!
- Templates - Have pre-set messages that can be sent with a click of a mouse
- Archive Conversations - Ability to close a conversation and hide it from view
- Bulk SMS Sending - Ability to send 1 message to multiple recipients via some kind of Queue. We're calling it announcements
- Auto Replies - Be able to automatically reply to a new message
- Schedule Sending SMS - Ability to deliver an SMS at a pre-set time
- Email Notifications - Ability to notify users that they’ve received an SMS by email using end-user supplied SMTP servers
- Postcards Updater - Add the ability to update from one version of Postcards to the next version
I wouldn't say that it is a "Demo App." We do want people to be able to use it as a solid solution, but it's not our company's focus. If you have some development expertise, you can fork it and expand on it. Otherwise you have to just wait for us to give it some TLC. We are going to try to do twice a year updates on it.

How that timeline coming?
-
@JasGot It was technically released today - so you should be able to install it and start using it now. We'll be doing the formal announcement on Monday (apparently there is a small known bug that our developers want to fix before we release it).
Feel free to spin one up and try it - but I'd suggest waiting until you get the formal email on Monday before putting it in production. I don't personally know what the bug was.

Will the install documentation be updated too?
-
@JasGot I don’t believe the install methods have changed. So the existing guides should work.
-
Okay - it's official. New version is out:
