Have to reschedule the regular tennis match again? No problem, just fill in the date for the next match just before the message gets out.
FEATURES:
+ SMS Templates: Create your own SMS templates and reuse them for recurrent events
+ Placeholders: SMS Blocks offers 20 placeholders which you can use in your SMS templates. With placeholders you can fill in appropriate data just before you send the SMS. SMS Blocks provides placeholders for date/time, location, media and number values.
+ Custom Placeholders: Now you can define your own placeholders! Before you send your SMS you can just select the actual value for a custom placeholder.
+ Categories: Organize your templates in categories.
+ Favorites: Keep your favorite templates in a special list for even faster access
+ Landscape View Support: Convenient editing of your templates in both portrait and landscape view
+ Address Book Integration: Import contacts and create recipient groups. Define default recipients for SMS templates and even for categories: Every SMS template, which does not have a default recipient or recipient group, will inherit the recipient of its category. Or just start by selecting the recipient or group and then select the SMS template you want to send.
+ Calendar Integration: If a SMS template contains a date or time placeholder, you can enable SMS Blocks to create an event in your standard calendar. Never again miss a date you have announced by SMS!
+ Location Awareness: Send your friends the address of the place you are! 7 new placeholders are now available for this cool feature.
+ SMS and iMessages send out: In our app we use the proven messages engine from Apple that you also use when you create SMS or iMessage messages on your iPhone directly.

Awesome!

Awesome app... Take just a few minutes to get the hang of it but then it is awesome. Saves time... Probably can save a life in the car. Set up grps for work text grps daily to check in... Gotta buy it! TY
Doesn't work
BronsonP
Just tested the app using two separate phones to text my own, and it did not work. While the auto-message seemed to send from my phone, it was never received by the other two phones. I do not know why this app does not work, but it does not. Don't waste your money on this waste of code.
Good app

I was looking for an app to manage message templates on my iphone, and this is perfect for me. I can recommend it.
Great App - Simple and Effective
Sun Viking
Works just as described. Easy to use and has great features. The only thing that would improve it is if it were able to send iMessages and e-mail. It could also be a little more visually appealing, by adding some color and graphic design, but this is obviously not critical. The functionality is great.
What's the point?

It does not send the response to the recipients automatically or if it does I am doing something wrong. You still have to go into the app and manually send the message. If you are in a meeting or in the car or whatever you still have to stop what you are doing to go into the template and send the message so you might as well just send the text without the app. I don't see the point. If the response were automatic this app would be a four for me...

Common sense might have saved a few lives by using this app. DON'T TEXT AND DRIVE!!!
