Too cluttered
SMS is a requirement here in the states
I’ve missed multiple sets of messages due to poor notifications on the more privacy focused apps
Don’t you get charged for every SMS message? Here in Europe I’m grumpy everytime I need to send an SMS, because I’m being charged for something that is completely free through the internet. Not to mention that due to our local characters, an SMS is only 70 chars long.
Nope, SMS is free in pretty much all phone plans here in the states
That explains it, then. Here it costs around 11 US cents per message. So if you are messaging a lot, they will add up at the end of the billing period.
