I have never found a way to text with a computer to a phone. If you have a way it could a good thing to share.

You send an email to a specific address and it pops up on their cellphone as a text message. The email address is cell_phone_number@whatever

"whatever" is specific for their cell service provider. For example, for AT&T, "whatever" is txt.att.net. For Sprint, whatever is messaging.springpcs.com. For Verizon, whatever is vtext.com. T-Mobile is tmomail.net. For most service providers you can send either an SMS or an MMS message to the same address. AT&T does not allow this. To send a standard text only message (SMS), use txt.att.net. To send a multimedia message (MMS), use mms.att.net instead.

So if their phone number is 123-456-7890 and their service provider is AT&T, for a basic SMS text only message, you send an email to: [email protected]

This will appear to the recipient as a text message sent from your email address, so if they reply via text message, that reply will show up in your email inbox, not on your cellphone. Obviously, since your cellphone was never used in the process.

The problem is, you have to know their cellphone provider. I guess you could send your message to all providers and just live with the bounced emails that come back from the wrong ones.

If you have a Samsung phone Microsoft has an app called "Your Phone". It lets yo send and receive text and emails from your PC.
I use it and it works well.

I use my computer to send and receive messages with Android Messages, Telegram and Signal. I prefer using my computer because I can type a lot faster with a real keyboard.

Get a BlackBerry. Or, at least, you could have had one. I have a BlackBerry Key2, which is an Android phone with a keyboard (not the classic BlackBerry that most people think of when they say "Blackberry").

Not sure if any new ones will be coming out, though. It seems that they are shutting down plans to launch a new phone.

I just don't get why anyone would want a phone without a keyboard if they do any kind of texting or emailing...especially for work. (I get if you are trying to watch movies on it...although I can do that with my BB Key2.) And yet, the inferior keyboardless design seems to have won the day. Very, very strange to me that people would prefer that. I do a lot of multiparagraph business emails on the blackberry; I can't imagine typing that much text without a keyboard. I pretty much don't have to look at the keyboard; I just type. It will be very disappointing if that ability goes away.

Nice while it lasted.

My only phone plugs into the wall. I don't have or want to have a cell phone.
I don't use Microsoft products nor do I use anything Google for privacy reasons.
We spent a lot of money and time to keep the government from tracking us illegally and now, a few years later, the public is paying high tech corporations to collect and use our most intimate secrets. I don't believe that is a good idea.

 

[Magus]

Me either, I have no desire to be tracked, attacked or bothered.

 

[SheepDog]

Well, it might not be too bad if I was attacked by that little red-hared girl down the street .
I'm sure my wife would understand... maybe too well.

If you call all your friends and text them that you have lost your phone, among your friends how many would know that you used your phone to call and the whole thing is a joke?

If my friends got a text from me they would know it wasn't me.

I went to a massage parlor. It was self-service.

It's tough to stay married. My wife kisses the dog on the lips, yet she won't drink from my glass!

Last night my wife met me at the front door.
She was wearing a sexy negligee. The only trouble was, she was coming home.

A girl phoned me and said, 'Come on over. There's nobody home.' I went over. Nobody was home!

A hooker once told me she had a headache.

I was making love to this girl and she started crying. I said, 'Are you going to hate yourself in the morning?' She said, 'No, I hate myself now.'

My wife is such a bad cook. In my house we pray after the meal.

My wife likes to talk to me during sex; last night she called me from a hotel.

It's been a rough day. I got up this morning and put a shirt on and a button fell off. I picked up my briefcase, and the handle came off. I'm afraid to go to the bathroom.

I was such an ugly kid! When I played in the sandbox, the cat kept covering me up.

I remember the time that I was kidnapped and they sent a piece of my finger to my father He said he wanted more proof.

Once when I was lost, I saw a policeman, & asked him to help me find my parents. I said to him, "Do you think we'll ever find them?" He said, "I don't know kid. There's so many places they can hide."

My wife made me join a bridge club. I jump off next Tuesday

I'm so ugly, I once worked in a pet shop, and people kept asking how big I'd get.

I went to see my doctor. "Doctor, every morning when I get up and I look in the mirror I feel like throwing up. What's wrong with me?" He said: "Nothing, your eyesight is perfect."

I went to the doctor because I'd swallowed a bottle of sleeping pills. My doctor told me to have a few drinks and get some rest.

One year they wanted to make me a poster boy -- for birth control.

My uncle's dying wish was to have me sitting in his lap; he was in the electric chair.
