Sending SMS from application

[bertly_the_coder]

Hi guys,

What would be the solutions to sending an free SMS to anywhere in the world from a rails app? I have looked at the gems out there but they seem pretty outdated. Is this because there's an easier way to do this?

Thanks and Regards

I've used Twilio with https://github.com/twilio/twilio-ruby work very well.

It is not free. You need a service to actually send those SMS messages, of course. I would start by picking a service (in your price change) and then look for a wrapper (gem) that works with that service, not the other way around.

Hmmmm. No way to do this without a service? Hehe....was shooting for free. ;-)
