![]() Users will also need a texting plan and a good cellular signal for the service to work. Because the service works through SMS, unlike iMessage, which utilizes data, it won't work while using Wi-Fi internationally or on a plane, Engadget pointed out. The app does have some limitations, however. Thanks to the success of the Chrome extension, the duo raised $650,000 in funding to build the new mobile app. It quickly gained popularity, garnering some 250,000 users who were sending more than 2 million messages every day, according to TechCrunch. The developer duo behind MightyText, Maneesh Arora and Amit Sangani, launched the service in beta last year as a Chrome extension called Texty. Your carrier will simply charge you as if you sent an SMS message from your phone. Another positive is that MightyText will not result in any additional charges on your phone bill. The app synchs with your existing Android number instead of requiring a new set of digits. It then securely stores and organizes all texts, picture messages, and phone calls in a searchable format. The service will also pop-up an alert on your computer when you're receiving an incoming call. Once you install the app and plug-in, all your messages will be automatically synched to your phone and your PC. If you have trouble getting PB to show your messages, try enabling end-to-end encryption. To access the service, you'll also need to install a Web browser plug-in from the for Google Chrome, Firefox, Safari, or IE9. MightyText has pretty much run the game for a while so theyre better at a lot of little things (e.g., theres practically no latency while PB has a bit - a few seconds - of latency). The free MightyText app is available in Google Play for smartphones running Android 2.2 or above. ![]() ![]() This app was developed by pair of former Google workers Maneesh Arora and Amit Sangani that easily synchronizes your phone's texts and calls to your computer in real-time.
