Is there a way to make Sandy's responses less verbose? My cell phone has limits on the number of characters that are allowed in an email, so I'd like to drop the non-essentials like the greeting and footer.
I'm a David Allen student, meaning I'm trying to organize my life based on his Getting Things Done books. One of the key aspects of this is getting reminders of todo items at the appropriate times. (Like items to pick up at the store when I am at the store.) Its difficult to always have the lists on you, but if sandy could text me my grocery list by replying to a jott saying "lookup @grocery @sms" it would help me tremendously. Currently, sandy thinks this is just another search parameter. Should be pretty easy to implement, she just needs a way of distinguishing a reply method from a typical tag.
If my first SMS confirmation took about 40 minutes, should i expect that for normal? I'm trying to figure out how to set my "notify time" correctly. And am I correct that the smae notification time (i.e. 15 minutes before) will be used throughout all the mediums (email, sms, twitter)?
I do not get the test sms from Sandy. I have cincinnati bell and have tried listing numerous carriers, including 'other' but nothing comes through. It has been almost a week and I keep trying. What's up?
I've been looking around and can't find it, please let me know if there is. If not, I'd love to see it integrated in the future. Perhaps a shortened version of the digest.
I just think it'd be really useful to have my list of stuff to do waiting for me on my phone every morning.
The SMS reminder text begins "(Reminder)" which is all that I can read in the Blackberry subject field.... so I have to open the message to see the content. How can I delete this "introduction"? After all, I can already see that its from Sandy, so I know its a reminder.
I can log in to Twitter; I follow Sandy and she follows me. If I send Sandy a direct message from Twitter (e.g., "d s remember this test twitter today @reply") I expect the following to happen:
1. I should get a reply via SMS from Sandy saying "I've scheduled this for you: "#1 Thu, 3/6 This test twitter"
2. I should see an appointment for today on my Your Stuff page, "Thursday 3/6, This test twitter"
But nothing happens! I can see my sent message in my Twitter Direct Messages SENT Box, and that's it. I have Twitter tweets turned on in my Sandy preferences, and if I press the TEST button on the Sandy preferences page I get the SUCCESS tweet on my phone as an SMS message and I see it in my twitter DM inbox.
Is anyone getting the sms confirmation to work with their iPhone (USA - ATT). I've tried both ATT settings and the Cingular setting and nothing is coming through.
I'm on MTS Mobility (in Manitoba, Canada), which is often partnered with Bell Mobility Canada (as Bell is national and MTS is provincial). Does MTS Mobility fall under the umbrella of Bell Mobility Canada in Sandy's "Mobile" settings, or am I out of luck for the time being?
I tried getting an SMS confirmation code using Bell Mobility Canada as my provider, but I haven't received anything back in an hour and a half, which is making me wonder if MTS is included.
Problem with SMS & Emails. For the last week, I have not had SMS/email reminders delivered timely (if at all). Is the system bottle necked? Any insights would be greatly appreciated.
How do I "postpone" a reminder from Sandy through an SMS? For example, if I am reminded that I need to call somebody, and I receive and SMS informing me of that, how do I get re-reminded in 15 minutes?
when I twitter Sandy I only ever get a response which instructing me how to remind and update. It would appear my sms twitter updates are not being recognised. Any ideas?
I want to use Sandy mostly through text messaging on my LG phone with Verizon, and am having problems setting this up. (I don't use the web on this phone because of cost, and would love to use Sandy when I'm not near a computer.) Is it possible to just use text messaging for setting up and getting reminders??
