Text (SMS) communications with attendees, members, etc.
I did not see this on the wishlist in the list of 339, unless i missed it :).
SMS (text) notication option would be great to have as alot of our members use texting on their phones. Email works good too but push text woould be great to have as an option for communication. Thanks.

After initial analysis we decided to remove this feature from 2017 plans. Right now we don’t have clear understanding when this feature will be taken into development.

It would be great if there was a feature / plug in to send text messages via WA outside of the US / Canada!

We would like to have a way to easily text event registrants directly, without having to import a list to our individual computers and looking up the numbers.

Hello, thank you this service looks great.
Am I correct that it is only for US & canada?
If so do you know if there are any plans to become international? -

🥳 Hello everyone,
I am pleased to announce a new service Member Signal: text messaging for Wild Apricot.
This service can help if you want to:
- Reach those contacts, who do not open emails
- Send urgent notification to event attendees
- Remind about upcoming membership renewalsClose integration with Wild Apricot makes it extremely easy to choose the right audience: newsletter non-openers, or specific membership level, or saved search.
Interested? Learn more here: https://membersignal.com

We would love to have this capability. It's definitely a growing need as we use our phone to navigate through our daily lives.

We would like to use SMS texting as another touchpoint with our new, potential and existing members.

I have not purchased this product yet and the lacking Text/Chat/Message/SMS feature in the mobile app is the missing piece to the puzzle.
This is intended to be a one-stop-shop service for businesses and organizations and it's missing the most common form of electronic communication used by the world!
When you have it, you have a sale!
What I would like to see:
- Ability to send a message from one user to another and,
- Ability to create groups which could be selected from the member list or by a designated title/position/admin ranking.
- GIF, photo, video, link, file and emoji compatible or incompatible based on group creator controls (some groups may not want the chaos of those additions and may want it text-only).
- Ability to access this communication feature through the desktop version as well in the same manner that Messenger can be used from the desktop or a mobile device.
- Video calling would be the cherry on top if it had a group meeting feature, otherwise, a one-on-one video calling feature isn't of much use to our organization.
- And preferably, add admin controls in the profile permissions as to who can use chat and who cant.I would be happy to move forward with purchasing this product once this was at least underway with enough progress that a rough ETA for release was available. Thank you!

We would like to be able to send an SMS to members, individually from the Member contact page, after we have phoned them. We have the email system sending automated reminder emails, but when the membership changes to lapsed we call them, often this call goes to voicemail, and we would like to support the call with a quick SMS. Many of our members don’t have time to sit down and read emails till late at the end of the day, after our office hours are closed. Is this a possibility.

PERHAPS this can just be a push notification feature?

Is this in Wild Apricot’s radar? This was requested close to 10 years ago with the last admin comment two years ago. Current enhancements have far fewer votes than this one. Also, I think there’s a few more wishlist items that might belong here as well, if you search for ‘text message’.

This is a feature that should be reconsidered.

SMS messaging is essential. We are struggling to reach younger professionals who do not use email, and we find the corporate security systems are tighter than ever and blocking bulk emails.

I was wondering if you can develop a text message reminder for membership and other announcement. Thanks

Member Planet has a feature through which all members of the org. or all registrants for an event can be sent a text to their phones. I wish WA included that feature.
