3. Several pre-made sentences, perfect when you are short of time. You can also add/edit/remove additional sentences.
4. Unlike other applications, If a user has several phone lines you can select the one you want.

Attention US users: We now provide a web tool to locate the provider of any US user (Updated information unlike other applications).

Many users including those with long nails or large fingers on the i-phone were having difficulty writing SMS messages since the regular applications do not provide a landscape keyboard, those times are over. Now you can use our application to send SMS email messages!


You can select the recipient from your address book or you can manually type the number, very easy to use. Also, the recipient will be able to reply to your message from their phone as a regular text message.

The current SMS application that comes with the iphone does not let you send messages using a large/landscape keyboard. This application will let you write and send SMS messages using a big landscape keyboard. Furthermore, the message that you send from our application will not be billed as an SMS message, making it FREE! (please read further for details about the cost).


We have compiled a LARGE list of providers/carriers from where you can choose the recipients one, making it easier for you to send SMS messages.

Please go to http://www.gp-imports.com/sms/ there is a link to a forum so we can all share our experience setting up providers.

Most carriers permit the recipient of the sms message to answer it in the usual way.

For the recipient it works as a regular SMS message (billed according to his/her plan).

Most carriers limit this kind of message to 180/200 characters.

Sending this message is absolutely FREE; you will not be charged for sending it as a text message on your phone bill, since its being sent as an email from your phone.

This application will let you add/edit/delete carriers as you find the need. Weve compiled a large list of providers and included them into this application.

IMPORTANT:
Keep in mind some of the contacts in our list can change from time to time so its important to keep your database updated. We will update the carriers available database at least every 30 days and we will be adding at least 200 carriers more soon. Our updates will not erase your previous additions to the list.

If by any chance you dont see the carrier of your recipient you can call their customer service number and they will provide this information to you or the recipient. All providers are not the same, some of them have a specific format for the message, some of them require the user to activate the service (normally at no cost).

Language support for English, French, German, Japanese, Dutch, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, Danish, Finnish, Norwegian, Swedish, Korean, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Russian, and Polish

Pros and cons of SMS Landscape Big Keyboard app for iPhone and iPad

SMS Landscape Big Keyboard app good for

This realy helped me thanks Could u please get telus on Canada That would sweeten the deal eh?
this doesnt work, and is very inconvenient because in the time it takes to find a contacts number and provider is more frustrating than the portrait keyboard
I love this app. one thing that could made it better would be to have some quick notes set up, that can save some typing time !
My friend showed me this and at first I read the reviews and was kind of skeptical but then I tried it... it was confusing at first but now I love it!
I started this and i thought it was stupid but it acually turned out really cool. I can text all my friends even though I dont have a cell phone.
Everyone that gives this 1 star is just plain lazy it takes 10 seconds.

Some bad moments

ONLY Landscape. The provider list is not working for the number listed. I just want that part, really, only. I want to write in Messages. Ill be happy.
Bitesms stil cant be beat! Also where do all of u get that telus in Canada has iPhones? Rogers and fido do but telus doesnt. Wow noobs shouldnt be aloud to have iPhones. LOL u all make me laught. Anyways for 2 bucks this app isnt worth it. Jailbreak ur iPhone then use bitesms. Best SMS app out there!
You missed the largest carrier in Canada Telus, thus I wasted my money.
Just to let everyone know this app doesnt work with fido,telus and rogers
The 140 character warning is a pain. Not good. Otherwise its a basic app. Cant wait for update.
I really hoped that when people replied to a text that it would come back as a text.... Not an email!!! Still looking for a good SMS app that allows resending and forwarding messages.
