from Denmark here.

I am working on an app where I would like to send a text message to a user when a post is made in the user’s area and when there is a comment on the user’s post. But I am unsure how best to do this. I have found a company in Denmark (Inmobile) that has a text message service and that has a partnership with Zapier. But I am unsure if this is the best solution?

Would it be easier/better/cheaper with just a mail?

Thank you

Have a look at the Twilio integration.

It’s probably less complex technically and cheaper to set up email notifications, mostly because send email is already part of Glide’s managed platform.

Sending text SMS notifications will required a 3rd-party integration (see Darren’s recommendation and Twilio) which adds a layer of complexity and cost.
