This article explains the distinction between SMS and MMS messaging services. SMS (Short Messaging Service) refers to standard text messages, while MMS (Multimedia Message Service) accommodates images, audio, and video but costs approximately five times more.
New Feature
txtsignal introduced a feature allowing users to “include images with your messages at no extra cost.” The service permits attaching up to five images as links within text messages while maintaining SMS pricing rates. Users benefit from the platform’s link tracking capability, enabling engagement monitoring.
How It Works
The process is straightforward:
- Compose a message
- Upload selected images
- Send or schedule for later delivery
Benefits
- Include up to five images per message
- Maintain standard SMS pricing
- Track engagement with built-in link tracking
- Schedule messages for optimal delivery times
This feature combines the visual impact of MMS with the cost-effectiveness of SMS.
