MightyText – send SMS from your computer and sync to your Android device

Mighty Text

MightyText is a service that enables you to send SMS from your computer or tablet without handling your Android Smartphone.

How does it work?

It works by installing the mightytext android app and link your Android device to the app. Then install the browser add-on/extension. At your browser app/extension/addon sign up to mightytext.net using the same account tied for your device and presto you can now send and receive SMS.  You need to have an internet connection on Android phone in order to have access to MightText server.

The best part of this is that you can read and reply to the sender from your browser. This is perfect for people who is busy in front of their computer or even you left your phone at home and you only have your tablet or laptop with you, still you can receive and send SMS.
