The Komando.com App is great, but not everyone has a smartphone or is able to download apps. This leaves the option of SMS updates. At the moment, Komando.com has no official way to get text alerts– but, there is a workaround. To receive text alerts for all articles published to the main site, you’ll need to use the RSS feed: “https://www.komando.com/feed”. The best way to get RSS updates from Komando.com to SMS involves email alerts for the Komando RSS feed sent to your carrier’s Email to SMS gateway. To do this, use blogtrottr.com (or a similar service). Then, input the aforementioned Komando.com RSS feed, https://www.komando.com/feed, and in the email box, input your phone number’s email to SMS gateway address. (Formula to determine this by carrier is found here- https://20somethingfinance.com/how-to-send-text-messages-sms-via-email-for-free/.) After you’ve followed these instructions, you’ll get a confirmation text straight to your phone. Once confirming, you’ll begin to receive Komando.com updates whenever new articles are posted. If you want to get updates on specific topic on the forum, click on that topic, make sure you change the link in the address bar to end in “/feed” and repeat the previous steps to receive text alerts.
