Hey guys I’ve searched for an answer and the best answer i could find was that suggested to turn on “send large message” in Zap but i can’t find that anywhere. so How can i send longer SMS messages? thanks

Hi @mmtenyakov 

Which SMS app are you using in the Zap step? (screenshots)

Im using the zapier sms app

@mmtenyakov 

If you need longer messages, then you may have to try using a different SMS app:

Help: https://help.zapier.com/hc/en-us/articles/8496258419341-Send-text-messages-in-Zaps

  • Text messages have a limit of 153 characters. Any additional characters will be truncated.

 

 

So... there is no way to increase that limit?

What other app can i use? I really dont have the time or patience to be trying out different apps. Ive looked at a few and they all suck or are too expensive. 

@mmtenyakov

FYI: SMS by Zapier can only be used to send SMS to verified phone numbers. (e..g your own phone number)

I recommend going with one of the top Zap apps listed in the Phone & SMS category.

NOTE: To send SMS, you need A2P 10DLC approval: https://pages.twilio.com/10DLC-HelpArticles-WW.html
