RelaySMS Can Now Be Your Default SMS App

We’ve been quietly building something we have all wanted since day one, and it’s finally here! You can now make RelaySMS your default SMS app.

If you’ve been using RelaySMS, you already know how it helps you send messages online during internet shutdowns, throttling, or just bad network connections, and until now, you still had to switch between your phone’s SMS app and RelaySMS, but that wasn’t ideal or too smooth. So…we fixed it!

Now, everything happens in one place.

When you set RelaySMS as your default SMS app, all your regular SMS messages move right into your RelaySMS app. You’ll see every text, every conversation, all inside one familiar inbox.

And when you’re offline or facing a shutdown, you can still send your messages online straight from the same app (doesn’t that sound great?!).

RelaySMS was built to help people stay connected even when access is taken away. Making it the default SMS app brings us closer to that goal: one cool app that keeps your messages moving, whether you are online or offline.

No switching. No copying encrypted messages. Just one smooth experience.

We’re really proud of this update, and we’d love for you to try it and let us know what you think.

Update RelaySMS today and make it your default SMS app.
