However the messaging handling isn't as good as Android Messages AFAIK.If you haven’t heard by now, text marketing is one of the most effective marketing and communications channels available to businesses, nonprofits, and others. These work without need to install on PC, and with ANY SMS app on the phone. Other ways to do so without installing stuff on the phone are AirDroid, Pushbullet, and MightyText. Android Web Messages means you can use your browser without the need to install anything. If you're on a work PC and you're not allowed to install anything, that becomes a problem.

While in theory, Flow and SideSync is better because it allows you to access your entire phone, move files to your phone using WiFi Direct seamlessly, etc, they require you to install a program on your PC. IIRC this works over web and WiFi.Īndroid Messages has a web interface. However some people have been saying it's not working properly for them. You're able to view your SMS and gallery on your PC through the app on the PC.

You'll even hear phone audio and calls through your PC.Īnother option is Windows My Phone. It connects to the phone if they are on the same WiFi network and you're able to mirror your phone to PC and control everything. Since you're using a Samsung, depending on what phone model exactly you can use SideSync or Flow to send messages using your PC. You'll have to use another app to do that, which will basically work with any SMS app, whether Textra, Chomp, Android, Pulse, Evolve, etc. First off, IIRC Textra doesn't actually have a way to view on PC natively like Android Messages and Pulse does.
