mysms is a cross-platform text messaging service, based on Short Message Service (SMS), for smartphones, tablet computers, and laptop and desktop personal computers.[1]

History

[edit]

mysms is a brand of sms.at, which is a company of Up to Eleven Digital Solutions GmbH, and based in Graz, Austria.[2] Up to Eleven was founded by Martin and Jürgen Pansy. Toto Wolff and Rene Berger belong to its shareholders.[3] The global launch of mysms was in July 2012[4] and its efforts were initially focused in Germany, Austria and Switzerland.[5] The apps are available for several operating systems, including Android, iOS, Mac OS X, Windows, and web browsers.[6] As of December 2014, mysms for Android phone exhibits 1,000,000–5,000,000 downloads on the Google Play Store.[7]

Functions

[edit]

mysms synchronizes the existing text messaging history from the smartphone to desktop computers and tablet computers.[8] In contrast to instant messaging services like WhatsApp, mysms focuses on Short Message Service (SMS). Messages can be sent to any mobile phone number, regardless of device type or operating system.[9] Similar to iMessage, users can also send and receive instant messages to other mysms users over the Internet.[10]

Partnerships and integrations

[edit]

mysms cooperates with other cloud-services like Evernote and implemented Dropbox and Google Drive integrations to allow users to archive their SMS and multimedia messages.[11][12][13] The app for Windows 8 is pre-installed on Hewlett-Packard (HP) laptops.[14] Also, the service is offered as white-label product.[15] For this purpose, mysms partnered with the French mobile network operator Bouygues Telecom.[16]

Open API

[edit]

mysms provides an open application programming interface (API) to other developers that allows them to build their own application based on mysms' core features.[17]

Achievements

[edit]

In 2012, mysms achieved second place in the Austrian Fast Forward Award.[18] The German magazine Computer Bild mentioned mysms as winner of their messenger test.[19] As of December 22, 2014, the mysms app for Android phone takes the 36th place in the United States in the category Communication in the Google Play Top App Charts.[20]
