About this app

"SMS Controller for Android" allows its user to use features of android phone while they are away from their phone. Phone can be controlled by sending a simple SMS to the phone. The phone on which SMS Controller is installed responds to incoming SMS and performs operation based on contents of the SMS.

NOTE: First start may take time because of Google SDK integration.

Access is password protected. If the incoming SMS contains valid password then only the appropriate operation will be performed.

* If you forgot your phone at home or office then you can forward all your calls to another number by use of SMS Controller.

* If you are in emergency and want help by calling someone. Many times it happens that the called phone is silent mode. If that phone has SMS Controller installed then it can be very useful. An EMERGENCY SMS can be sent to phone that is on silent mode. In this case SMS Controller will plays sound even in silent mode and will blink LED flashlight. This will definatly get someone’s attention.

* If you have habit of keeping phone on silent mode all the time SMS Controller will be vey helpful. As example Consider that you forgot to be on time at exam, or important meeting, or presentation. Your friend can call your phone noticing that you are not available, but it won’t be of any help since your phone is on silent. If SMS Controller is installed on your phone then your friend put your phone on ringer mode and then call you.

* Location of the phone can be known in case it is miss placed or stolen.
