If you despise the cramped keypad of your mobile phone, or just don’t like the interruption of reading and sending SMS mesages while working on your Mac, there is a better solution. Have you ever wished you could send and receive your text messages right on your computer screen? You can, using a little piece of software called BluePhoneElite 2.
The app is put together by Mira Software, who provide frequent updates and, in my experience, excellent support. It works with a great number of devices and there is an updated list of compatible phones. These are my favourite capabilities:
- Readings texts on my Mac’s large screen
- Receiving instant notification of new messages
- Typing messages on a full size keyboard and sending them through my cell
- Mass archival, moving or deleting of texts
- All over Bluetooth (as the name implies) so there aren’t any messy cables
