Is this legal, and will my carrier ban my SIM?

Yes it's legal. No, your SIM won't get banned if you use it like a human. Sending SMS from your own phone over your own plan is legal anywhere SMS is. Stay within your carrier's fair-use policy (usually 200-500/day on consumer SIMs) and you're fine. Carriers don't ban SIMs for sending, they ban patterns that look like spam. Sending higher volume? register multiple devices and SIMs to distribute the load.

Can I cancel my Pro subscription anytime?

Yes, you can cancel your Pro subscription at any time. If you cancel, you'll still have access to Pro features until the end of your billing period. We also offer a 7-day money-back guarantee for new Pro subscriptions.

How many devices can I connect with a Pro plan?

The Pro plan allows you to connect up to 5 active Android devices simultaneously, which helps distribute your message load and provides redundancy if one device goes offline. If you need more devices, reach out to us.

Is there a limit to the number of recipients in bulk messages?

The free plan limits you to 50 recipients per bulk message. With Pro, there's no limit to the number of recipients you can include in a single bulk message (up to your monthly message quota).

Can I change the sender ID of SMS messages?

No, you cannot customize the sender ID. Messages are sent using your device's phone number and SIM card, so recipients will see your phone number as the sender. Brand names or custom sender IDs are not supported.

Can I use textbee.dev with iPhone?

No, textbee.dev currently works only on Android devices. Apple's iOS restrictions prevent the installation of custom SMS messaging apps, so iPhone support is not available at this time.

What's the minimum supported Android version?

textbee.dev requires Android 7.0 (Nougat) or higher. Make sure your device meets this requirement before installing the app.

Can I get notified of SMS status updates?

Yes! You can receive real-time notifications for SMS status updates (sent, delivered, failed) using webhooks. Configure webhooks in your dashboard to automatically receive notifications when these events occur. You can also check message status from the dashboard.

Can I receive SMS messages?

Yes, you can receive SMS messages sent to your device's phone number. Enable SMS receiving in the app settings, then retrieve messages via the API or set up webhooks for real-time notifications when messages are received.
