Flash SMS


Flash SMS message is a text message that appears on the screen of the mobile device whereas a normal text message would be routed to the recipient's text message inbox. This is a useful feature when the content of an SMS is important and should be read as soon as possible.

Flash SMS service can be useful for a company when immediate action is required to be done in case of alert and emergency. Employees tend to be less attentive when they scan their unread messages, especially if they have many of them. They may forget to view your SMS about an important date of event, meeting, system failure etc. To make sure that your notification is not skipped accidentally use implement Flash SMS into your communication system.

You can do this by installing an SMS Gateway software which has Flash SMS enabled applications. We recommend Ozeki NG SMS Gateway as it offers many types of Falsh SMS solutions according to your needs. The software helps you to inform and to be informed in time without delay. The message can be read as soon as the recipient takes a look at his/her mobile phone. It catches attention immediately especially when it is blinking.

Some more features of Flash SMS are the followings:

  • it costs no more than a normal SMS
  • 69 characters can be sent in a blinking Flash SMS
  • so it is rather short but nothing else can be done on the mobile handset before viewing it
  • it is not saved automatically to the SMS inbox of the mobile phone, but you can save it manually.

Flash SMS is a good solution for direct message sending, however not all the mobile devices are capable of doing so. Sending and receiving Flash SMS to and from mobile phones require compatible devices first. Secondly, a code has to be entered before typing the message or create an account at a website to send Flash SMS. The code that is often used is the "0001". This code belongs to Class 0. Classes identify the message's importance and the location where it should be stored. Class 0 indicates that the message is to be displayed on the screen of the recipient's mobile device immediately and a message delivery report is to be sent back to the sender. The message does not have to be saved in the memory or on the SIM card unless the mobile user select it.

To make Flash SMS sending more comfortable, you can set Ozeki NG SMS Gateway to send Flash SMS automatically. This way you become able to make trouble shooting faster and reaction time shorter. Your employees would notice all important alerts as soon as they arrive.
