About EmailToSms: Email To SMS
Takes email messages and stores them inside the device text messaging app.
[Note: if you are searching for an app that sends email messages as SMS messages, please try:

Scenario:
• A friend sends you an email
• The email is instantly received by the app background service
• The app background service copies the email to the messaging app and sends you a noticifcation
• You read the "email" in the text messaging app and reply with a text
2 Modes of operation:
• Background: The app runs in the background converting any emails to SMS messages as they are sent
• Manual: Open the app and press "Enable". A dialog is shown asking that you temporarily confirm Email To SMS as the default SMS app. Once confirmed, the app converts any emails found into SMS/text messages. Once the notifications cease, set "Enable" to OFF restoring the original SMS app as default.
[Note: In Android 4.3 and below it is not necessary to set Email to SMS as the default app]
Important
To reply to the converted text message, please ensure that the sender's email address and cell number are in the device contact app. If the app cannot associate a phone number with the sender of the email then it will use the email address in place of the number, however this will prevent reply from working.
Features:
• Preview: specify how many characters from the email to move to the SMS app [Default: 'All']
• Options to only convert to SMS text message if sender or recipient is in the contact app
• Option to show a notification whenever an email is being converted
Good to know:
• Mail Support: IMAP, IMAP IDLE, POP and POP3 and passwordless GMail authentication [OAuth2]
• Completely private! Your data/email NEVER leaves your device!
• While this is a new concept app, it is based on my mail engine used in many different products. I expect the app to be stable, however If you encounter any issues please press the report button and I will fix them.
• The app is capable of saving the entire email. However, some text messaging apps assume messages are limited to 160 characters
TODO::
1. Better feedback on when a sync is complete [So you know when to disable the app again], 2. The ability to restrict the email to sms conversions to a list of people, 3.A home screen widget so that conversions can be done without opening the app 4. A history of the conversions completed

It worked with the free app. Now that I have paid, it no longer sends sms notifications to my watch.
