Ahoy there me hearties! Yer friendly app pirate spends most of me time sailing the seven seas, booty hunting and diving at Davey Jone’s locker. I love the sea and me fellow buccaneers, but I also have lots of landlubber friends. Thanks to the technology, this old salt could get in touch with them. When I’m not busy with me pirate adventures, this bucko would always talk to them via SMS. Speaking of SMS, I found this app called Advance SMS by Killer Mobile. We’ll talk more about this SMS manager in this review. So avast ye me lads and lasses as we begin.
It’s Rich in Features
This SMS manager is loaded with features that you would find helpful in managing your text messages, which is great as this isn’t usually available on the native SMS app of mobile devices. They usually just let you save your messages and that’s it. Advance SMS would let you do so much more. Some of them are backup, auto reply, auto forward text messages, schedule sending texts and even set a specific alert tone for your contacts so you would know immediately who’s calling or texting. If you’re like many mobile users who text a lot, you would find the several features of this app helpful. It comes with 14 days demo before you’ll be asked to purchase it to continue using the full features of the app.
Comes with Several Options and Settings
There are various options and settings that you could customize on this app. This is great as you could personalize it and make it work for you. It may look overwhelming at first for those who are not into reading various settings and options available. However, they are easy to understand. You would know immediately what they are for so you wouldn’t really have a hard time learning how to use them. They are self-explanatory.
May Take Some Getting Used to But It’s No Rocket Science
As mentioned, it’s pretty straightforward so you would know immediately what they are for. There are just many settings to customize so it may take some getting used to. However, it wouldn’t really take too long since they are pretty basic.
