SCIFText

Texts, delivered to the inbox you already read.

SCIFText runs on your Android phone. It watches the Google Messages notifications you allow, and emails those SMS and RCS conversations to addresses you choose.

Reply to that email and the phone sends your answer as a text from your own number.

How it works

  1. Install the app and sign in. The Android package is com.sciftext.
  2. Add up to three forwarding addresses and turn forwarding on. The switch lives on the phone. Nothing is forwarded until you enable it.
  3. Reply from your mail app. The reply goes back through the phone, so the other person sees your number.
