Does the Android phone that I have access to need to be active and on a cell plan? Or can it be used through WiFi without being activated? It has SIM card, but it’s one that I don’t ever use…
Hi there, I recently purchased TextLink (Tier 1) on AppSumo. I installed the Android app using the official link and granted all necessary permissions, including battery and background activity. However, my device does not appear on the Dashboard under "Devices and Setup", even after restarting, reinstalling, and checking my internet connection. I’ve followed all the instructions carefully and made sure everything is correctly configured. Could the issue be related to me using the service from Portugal? I would really appreciate your guidance on how to proceed. Thanks in advance for your support!
A: We built TextLink from scratch, and iterated it over last year based on our customers' feedback, while VoidFix looks exactly like RBSoft's white-label SMS Gateway template.
I don't quite understand their socket-based billing plan, but on TextLink your price is based on amount of messages you need to send, since messages primarily influence our servers' resource usage.
Am I sending SMS messages through my own carrier or through TextLink? And if I am bringing my own carrier, can I assume that I would be limited to whatever my carrier allows? So I wouldn't be able to set the outbound CallerID, etc.

Q: Is this a BYOC platform?
Hello,
Am I sending SMS messages through my own carrier or through TextLink?
And if I am bringing my own carrier, can I assume that I would be limited to whatever my carrier allows? So I wouldn't be able to set the outbound CallerID, etc.
