Description

From the listing uploaded by “nothgualstore”.

VoIP.ms SMS is an Android messaging app for VoIP.ms that seeks to replicate the aesthetic of Android Messages. # Rationale # A number of people use VoIP.ms as a cheaper alternative to subscribing to a voice plan for their mobile devices. Unfortunately, this can make sending text messages rather difficult, as the VoIP.ms SMS Message Center is clearly built as a diagnostic tool for use in desktop browsers, not as an easy way to send and receive messages on a mobile device. VoIP.ms does provide a mobile version of this interface with an improved UI, but it still lacks important features that are only possible with a dedicated app. # Features # • Clean material design aesthetic based on that of Android Messages, Google's standard messaging app for Android • Push notifications • Synchronization with device contacts • Message search • Comprehensive support for synchronization with VoIP.ms • Completely free # License # This application is open source; it is made available to the public under the Apache License 2.0. You can download the source code from the application's GitHub repository, which is located at https://github.com/michaelkourlas/voipms-sms-client/.

VoIP.ms SMS APK: questions and answers

Can I install this APK over the version I already have?

Only if it is signed with the same certificate as the copy on your phone and isn't an older version. If Android says “App not installed”, the certificates differ; uninstalling your copy first works but deletes its data unless it is backed up.

Is the VoIP.ms SMS APK safe?

No one can promise that a file is safe, but some things can be checked. The source store rates this file Trusted. After downloading, check that the file's MD5 is a7d739c371a3b9fadd70974ae0b27800.
