This doesn't seem to be working for me. I am in the UK. I enter my number, then receive a text:
> Hi! This is txxt. Send messages to this number to see them on your page. If you didn't ask for this, ignore it!
I then reply with:
> Reply
but it doesn't show up on the webpage. If I reload the page it says:
> Looks like you were sent a welcome text but didn't finish setting up your account.
>
> Reply to the text and you'll see your message(s) show up here.

> Click here to be sent another text.
Hey, sorry it didn't work! I just pushed an update that uses a new UK-based number for users in that region, so it should work now. Let me know if you try it again.
Please charge money for this. I’d pay ~$20USD for an export option and reminders to leave a note. I love the onboarding. Extremely minimal but very effective. Web sockets are a nice touch.
This is amazing. I love the idea and simplicity. As others have said being able to edit/delete messages would be great. Also a way to tag them e.g. Thought, idea, question, reminder
Apologies, there was an oversight on my part on setting the geo permissions after pushing an update. I'd noticed initially that welcome messages sent to +91 numbers weren't getting delivered, but with the latest changes it should hopefully work.
It should work in nearly all countries -- anywhere that Twilio can send SMS messages. The app's number is based in North America so there might be international texting charges depending on your provider, but I'm planning to set up more numbers based in different regions.
Trying it from the Czech Republic (+420). I got the welcome message withing few seconds and replied, but the server probably never got my reply ("Looks like you were sent a welcome text but didn't finish setting up your account")

- You can set your public url as /me which seems like it would break your private page.
- SMS number is exposed in the api response, which could be bad for public pages.
Nice website though.
