Want to spend less to communicate with your family or friends? Here is a new text messaging app, brought to everyone by Smart, which can be accessible through Facebook. This could definitely rival existing free text messaging website Magtxt.com who's very popular to tech savvy Pinoys.
Text your loved ones for free using Smart's GoTxt application that allows Facebook users, who can be subscribers of any network, to send messages for free to Smart subscribers only.
However, a rule must be followed so that one could still continue sending messages to Smart subscribers for free. Each GoTxt application user should be able to receive at least one reply (equivalent to P1.00) for every three free text sent to other parties in order to continue availing of the service. It's somewhat similar to pioneer messaging application Chikka Messenger.
To use GoTxt and avail of the free text to Smart subscribers through Facebook, follow the instructions below:
- Log on to Facebook.
- Look for the GoTxt PH app on the search box or view the link found in this sentence. Allow the app permission to access your personal information; eventually, you will be redirected to its main site.
- Click the plus (+) button beside the My Buddies tab to add the contact numbers of your family members, friends and other recipinets. Type in the name and smart number on the spaces which will be appear after clicking the plus (+) button. Hit the arrow key once you completely fill in the necessary recipient details.
- To send a message, choose your recipient by clicking on the contact name. A messaging platform will appear next to it where you can then type down your message (up to 138 characters only).
- Click the arrow located below the message box. This will start the sending of the message.
