Your security is our priority

  • Fixed test message: the tool only sends one standard text, so it can't be used for spam.
  • Bot protection: a quick human-verification check runs before anything is sent.
  • Fair-use limits: daily limits per visitor and per number stop repeated sends to the same phone.
