NOTE: A Zipwhip account is required to use this product. You can either use a landline, toll-free number, or an Android powered cell phone and mobile number.
For Landlines and Toll-Free:
Text enabling your existing landline number has finally become a reality! Whether you're interested in text enabling your existing residential or business landline number, it works the same way. When a friend or customer text messages your number, the message shows up Windows 8.1 device or any other Zipwhip applications. Text enabling your landline or toll-free number does not interfere with your existing voice service.
For Mobile Numbers with an Android Powered Phone:
Zipwhip brings your text messaging (SMS / MMS) to the cloud allowing you to send, receive, and sync texts to your Windows 8.1 device using your existing phone number and text messaging plan. Receive notifications instantly when you receive a text and send to anyone with a mobile phone. Your friends do not have to have the app for this service to work. Simply install the Zipwhip Phone Sync App on your Android phone.
