If you are like me you send a minimum of 100 text messages per day.. And I am not one to delete.. :-)
So I needed a way to archive my messages and keep them for eternity! I know one can do a back-up of the phone and include messages but it does not give instant access if you want to re-read any of messages..
Then comes txtForward.. An application for the BB which can automatically forward text messages to an email. Simple? YES!
When you receive an sms, txtForward will automatically forward the message to your nominated email account. And if you have a Gmail account, perfect partnership! Your messages will be threaded as this is the way Gmail handles emails.. If you dont have a Gmail account and want threaded messages, get GMAIL! otherwise you will not get your messages threaded..
Also because it does automatically forward your sms to your email, if you forget your phone or is not available to you, you can still read your messages via your email!
It does not impinge greatly to the battery life which is a big plus! Electric Pocket uses their own servers to send messages instead of the servers in the BB config..
Things to note (and hopefully will be part of future versions)
- does not work for MMS
- sent items are not backed up
- from field changes to "txtForward" instead of keeping the sender's details
Another MUST HAVE for your BB..
