Who needs a pen? A new txtFeeder Feature
Monday, October 19th, 2009I am proud to announce a new feature! txtFeeder Notes. Now, not only will you avoid data charges, but you can now stop carrying pens! Ever been somewhere and needed to jot something down but don’t have a pen? Now you can just send a text to txtFeeder, and it will save your note. You can view your notes online, or through a text message command read the note any time you need it.
You’ll also notice you can now reset your password from your account page, in case you need to.
Log into your account to try this new feature out! If you haven’t joined yet, now is the time!
New Feature: Account Usage Statistics
Wednesday, September 9th, 2009You’ll notice on the your account page, you have a new tab called ’stats’! View your monthly stats. I got some feedback from users who don’t have unlimited text messages, so to help them avoid going over their monthly limit, I’ve now included statistics. Using this service is meant to avoid data charges on your phone, and the best way I can do that is to provide you with as much information as I can. I still suggest getting unlimited texting, if you’re going to use this service regularly, as its easy to get a lot of texts without realizing it, but hopefully this will help anyone having trouble monitoring their usage.

This shows you the number of messages you have received from txtFeeder.
There may be some delay, but it should be pretty minimal.

This shows the number of text message you have sent txtFeeder.
Between these two graphs you should be able to easily monitor your text usage with this service, and in addition to just avoiding data charges, avoid any text limits you may have with your carrier. As always, read the FAQ if you have any questions, or report a problem if you experience any.
