Sending Group Texts with SnapPea

One day, my friend Zack decided he wanted to have a party and invite all of his friends with a single text message. Difficulty: he wanted to do so without touching his mobile device from the comfort of his desktop computer.

Fortunately, Zack is an avid SnapPea user and he knew that he could simply send group texts all from his SnapPea client.

First, he opened his SnapPea client to its “Text Messages” tab.

Then he clicked “Send text.”

He selected all of his friends, being careful not to choose Adam (nobody likes Adam).

Next, he wrote them a note, using SnapPea’s $NAME function to address each contact by name in the text message. Notice he also specifies that nobody should bring Adam.

Finally, he clicked “Send.” The rest, as they say, is history. The party was epic, btw (don’t tell Adam).

Side Loading Apps Made Easy with SnapPea

Suppose you want to use an app that’s not yet available in the Google Play store. What do you do? With SnapPea, you can easily install apps to your Android phone by first downloading them to your PC.

First, download the app’s .apk file to your desktop. Below, I’ve downloaded the Cubie Messenger .apk to my desktop (OK, it’s available in the Google Play store, too, but work with me here).

Next, open SnapPea and select your Apps tab.

Click Install apps —> select file, and find the .apk file that you’ve downloaded.

Hit Install.

The newly installed app won’t show in the your installed apps list at first… but not to fear! After you hit “Refresh,” you’ll be in business.

Assuming you’ve got your mobile device connected, SnapPea will automatically install the app on your phone.

SnapPea is designed for Android users who’re tired of searching for their phone’s content scattered across various mobile apps and the web. Google Play, handset manufacturers, and cloud services all address pieces of the puzzle, but SnapPea brings it altogether in one program.
