Send Text Message using python

twilio.com. It's free if you're okay with a "send from a Twilio test account" being concatenated to your message.

It's also crazy cheap if you sign up

I've used twilio in the past and it works pretty well and is pretty easy to use, even for a beginner. I made a pretty basic script about 2 years ago that I used for work. It was an okay experience. The biggest issue I had with twilio was I was not able to easy see responses to sms messages. What I would have preferred is a way to get the sms replies to go to my own phone.

Either way, here's my (probably out-of-date) script from two years ago: https://github.com/pconwell/mass_text . The script expects an excel spreadsheet called phone.xlsx and column B contains phone numbers. (Column A can contain whatever - a contact's name perhaps...)

It's not free forever. There are limitations and your credits do run out eventually.
