Microsoft's SMS organizer, the "best SMS app for android"???

The Microsoft Garage team has come up with a latest mobile application -- SMS Organizer -- to transform and simplify the way of handling SMSes (short message service).

"The SMS Organizer app uses sophisticated machine learning algorithms to classify and interpret transactional, personal, promotional, and spam messages. The app occupies very little space on the device (just about 3MB) and works independently without being connected to the web.

The new app will enable the users to classify and interpret important messages over others.  It also sets reminders for upcoming tasks such as catching a flight or payment of bills. SMS Organizer is a pure SMS app, simple and efficient but with no extra bells and whistles. Here’s a list of useful features that make this Android app a must-have.

1. OTP Detection

When you log into a website that requires 2-factor authentication, your bank for example, they send a one-time-password (OTP) to your mobile phone in a text message. You open the message, copy the digits and paste into the login screen.

SMS organizer makes this process a lot easier for you. It detects if a text contains OTP and gives you option to copy code directly from the notification menu. No need to even open the message.

 2. Google Drive Integration

Microsoft SMS Organizer can automatically backup SMS messages to your Google Drive. You can perform the backup manually and let the app do it for every day or every week. If you move to a new phone later, you can easily restore your text chats from the cloud.

 

3. Intelligent Message Sorting

The SMS app automatically sorts your text messages as they arrive into categories like transactions, promotional, and blocked.  So all text messages from your bank or your mobile service provider go in one folder while the bulk message goes into promotions.

 

4. Email-Like Filters

This is my favorite feature of SMS organizer. You can long-press a text message and it will let you define a filter for the sender of that message. All future messages from that particular sender will be moved to the designated folder automatically.

 

5. Smart Reminders

If any of your text messages have a due date, SMS organizer will show you a notification when the due date is approaching. For instance, if your credit card bill is due, you’ll be automatically reminded via a notification.

 

SMS organizer can send reminders for due bills, travel dates, upcoming appointments and more. You can also setup your own customer reminders inside the app and the text of the selected message will show up at the specified date and time.

 6. Send Free SMS

 You can use SMS organizer to send up to 30 text messages for free every month to any mobile number in India. These messages are sent via the Internet so even if you do not have cellular connectivity, the texts would still go out.

Microsoft’s SMS app is free, doesn’t include any in-app purchases and contains no advertising and all the data resides locally on your mobile device.

You can use the IFTTT app to save your text messages in a Google Sheet or for receiving texts as an email message. PushBullet and AirDroid can be used for viewing and responding to text notifications from your desktop computer.

The new app ensures complete privacy for the users and is available for download on the Google Play Store.
