The Widget works great, but I was wondering if it has any negative side effects.

Is it really for free?
 
was using it. until today when i needed to download the new version. I had to register my mobile number for a verification code, which i did. Haven't tried smsing yet, in case i'm charged.

I'm continuing using it and it's still free, I guess. I don't have a contract and my balance didn't go down.
 
i sent in a question yesterday, and they replied its free.
i'm using the 'basic' package thingy. so i guess it's free.
 
I saw this in Macworld and tried the voicemail and it works, has anyone try the text msg? They are both free :D

I've sent some txts.

I sent 5 on Saturday, ever since then it's said "You reached your daily limit. Please try again tomorrow"
 
There are many free text messaging gateways, so I don't think that's as much of a surprise. As far as the voicemail calling, they're essentially just changing the auto-forward number on your cellphone for unanswered calls to their number. That's something I think you can do on most cells from the settings, yourself, if you wanted to.
