Text Management

A vSIM can be set to forward received SMS text messages to one or more mobiles.

Text Blasting also permits an optional copy to email. This ensures that a permanent and accurate log of all received messages can be kept, even when the target mobile is switched-off, has no power, out of coverage or damaged. This is especially important for mission critical messages.

Privacy

vSIMs ensure that your privacy is fully protected. Hiding your real mobile number stops your location from being tracked. These days it's rather easy to track mobile phones. Because your vSIM is never connected to a mobile cell site, your location is not revealed.

Another handy feature is that intrusive text messages can be dumped to email and answered later when convenient. To reply just click the text reply link and send your text which will display your vSIM number as the sender. From this it is not feasible to find out your real mobile number or to determine when you read the message
