SMS text message alerts

To receive alerts on your phone, you'll need to use your mobile provider's email-to-SMS gateway.

The easiest way to find your SMS email address is to use your favorite search engine to search for [provider] email to sms.

For example, if you use T-Mobile, search for "t-mobile email to sms", which will show you to use [email protected]. So if your T-Mobile phone number was 123-456-7890, then your phone's email-to-SMS address would be [email protected]. You could then enter this email address into the visitor and/or uptime alert areas on Clicky to receive these alerts directly on your phone via SMS.

Although we'd prefer to use SMS gateways to send native SMS messages, they are prohibitively expensive for our high volume.
