Followed the guide last year and pretty much every event was great in terms of connections and content. If you are in the industry, don’t overlook this. Thanks John for putting it together again!


What the hack, this is absolutely awesome! Pun intended.


Maybe trauma blocked memories?


Dude, cool website!


Clever, sending a link to my GF right now. I wish you shipped to more countries.


Awesome, glad to hear it. We've had lots of interest internationally and released in Canada most recently. Australia, the UK, and Germany are likely next. Where are you hoping to ship to? You can subscribe to be notified when we release in your country at: https://nanagram.co/international


Finally I know if I'm making money or not. You guys will do great!


This is awesome! I even wrote a script a while back to do this. https://github.com/Danilka/twilio-forwarding

The main question: Can I answer text messages that were forwarded to me / initiate a call back from that number?

What about advance routing? Based on time or external sources? Numbers blocking, etc.?

Feedback on setup:

- It was super confusing to connect Twilio account that I already had.

- Signing up with Gmail only made me think for a second.

- Twilio connector only worked on a third try.

- I doubt that I would pay $6/mo for it when the time comes :-( Maybe a couple of bux, but not 6. (I don't want to discourage you here, just trying to be honest and give unfiltered feedback as a user, who is very interested.)

I hope you guys succeed, this would be great!

P.S. Awesome name for such a product!


Hey, thank you for your feedback!

Two-way messaging and call proxying is likely the next big features we'll be rolling out.

We went with the Twilio Connect route initially as a low-risk approach to see if there's an appetite for a something like this. Sadly it has not been a great user experience and we're definitely going to reconsider it (Twilio Connect).

As you might have guessed, we haven't actually decided on pricing yet but I wanted to put something on that page so that people can get a feel for how much it would cost them.

And yeah, the system we were using for auth (Cognito) did not at that time have an adequate 2FA solution, which was why we went with Google. Now that they do, we'll likely use that which would allow people to also signup with a username/password (in addition to Google, etc).


As a developer I REALLY like the fact that I can connect it to my Twilio account and have full control over my numbers. This way I don't have to deal with overcharges and can keep/port the number through Twilio.

As a consumer, it will probably be hard to scale this. But you can always add an option.

Smart move for the product introduction to a niche audience!


You can always port it’s not legal for someone to try and prevent you from porting a local number and in most casses the provider can’t stop it


A github hosted page that asks people to send ether to a random wallet?

People, beware and do your research before sending anything here.

Reported.


WTF, from 1400mhz to 600?! This is a one hundred percent push of new product onto people with a good preemptive coverup!

If a person uses their iPhone regularly, they will go through the battery cycles that Apple defined and he or she is a loyal customer, hence the usage. No one knows that you "suppose to" update the battery and it's not easy. So, people just buy new phones.

I am amazed that everyone is just cool with this. It is an extremely clever strategy and results in billions in extra sales for Apple.
