GTalkSMS

This app is amazing and I love the ability to be able to send sms from my computer. That way I don't always have to grab my phone to reply. Being able to change other settings on the phone through a chat client on my computer is great too.

Just locked up, made phone unusable when running.

Wow. All I really wanted, initially, was a way to send SMS messages through a chat client. (Take that, autocorrect). But what I got is so much more. If this is all you want, you'll be very satisfied. But you can send so many commands, as well. Very well thought out and executed. Thanks!

ignores custom server settings

I couldn't live without it.

Great app that does what it says it does, and does it well! I've used it for over a year without any problems up until the previous update which suddenly had tons of force close issues, but the newest update quickly fixed those problems and it is now back to running smoothly.

I've never written an app review before, but this is by far one of the most useful apps I have ever encountered. There are several others that do similar things, but I find myself usually using this one. I highly recommend this to everyone with an Android. My only criticism is that the name could be a little more appropriate/accurate.

This app has a real good set of features, unfortunatly force closes always when i start it on my galaxy tab 10.1, so could not review it :(

App is very useful. Can do more stuff than Chrome to Phone even if you want just share urls but unfortunately it does work! 5 out of 10 times it fails by stalling in connection to server phase.

Ultra-light and complete application to control remotly one's phone ! Thanks to XMPP-based chat, you can send SMS discreetly from the GMail web interfacee for example. The ring command is very useful when you loose your phone, as it make it ring out loud (regardless of your phone volume).

Great application! Highly recommend it.

I love the features of this app... it makes my life more productive and convenient. I can use my phone remotely while im using my PC or my tablet.

Useful

a bit tricky and command like but its good. though is the phone got stolen no use cuz rubber will first root the phone and format everything before turning on. overal nice and easy reminds me of DOS! :D

Since the April 2 release, public intents cannot be received from external applications.

Like the new look. Detailed settings. Thanks

Thanks. A really nice and useful app. Sending sms via ichat on a mac works great.

I like the new interface!

Great app.

I suspect this app caused my email password to be compromised

I had previously toyed with the idea of remote control, but it doesn't work if i do not root my Galaxy S2 and i couldn't get a incoming connection with my 3G plan. I am now using gtalksms to access my phone during the times when i do not have access to it. The idea of using a Instant Messaging framework alleviates itself from hosting expensive servers, and allows users to access their phone from any desktop. That's nifty. Good app that deserved a donation from me. Do keep up the good work and i hope this app runs smoothly on ICS when the update comes for Galaxy S2. :)

the best tool for android remote administration! you can do so much with it! from sending sms remotely, you can easily copy-paste stuff on it and struggle less with your phone's keyboard. you can even leave your android at home and still be able to sms people using it. optionally use it like an alarm for people at home using ring:... you can remotely reboot your android if you got root.. cmd:reboot ... since it is small and light, it's the best tool to manage old android phones if you have multiple c

Some commands never seem to work properly. Overall bugs need to be corrected aswell, the app crashes once in a bad while.

I couldn't live without it.

Very nice tool

Fantastically useful!

Works as advertised

gtalk

Last version used 200mb+ per SINGLE day. Beware. Heavy battery and bandwidth waste.

this wrks grt and completely functional (except few) alongwith grt documentation on google project so cant take out any rating for tht unique concept

Fantastic app, I use it all the time. But since the 4.4 update it will not connect. Just hangs on "Waiting..." status. Will give 5 stars if fixed...

9/16/2013: Latest version doesn't seem to work. It either doesn't respond to presses on "Connect" or it's stuck on "Waiting..." I love GTalkSMS (

Yeah it's really a great app, but regarding v4.4 Fatal Bug ... Please rollback ;-) Cheers

I love this app. The recent update has killed it though. Will not connect.

I use the gmail web interface as my main desktop mail client, which of course has Google talk built in. I'm also using the chrome browser, which supports desktop notifications. So without installing any software on my PC I can now send, receive and reply to SMS messages. Works brilliantly. One thing that would be good is if gtalkSMS could support other notification types, other than just calls and SMS. Then it would get 6 stars!

Well at least I wasted my time installing this and setting up a jabber account justri have this attempt and never work. Yes I checkedmy setting and the domain. But it just spun the circle at me. Weak.

I will always love you..

Was using talk2phone before I found this but it was very slow at times and gave you a giant jumble of text when you got a message. This is so much better! It's faster, has more commands, and recognizes contacts unlike talk2phone.
