Anthony (ID: 0000004f43cee8a0) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 11/09/2023 most of these reviews are obviously fake. real people don't write reviews like advertisements. regardless, the extension installs in edge, but it doesn't actually work. it should work because edge is built on chromium, so the extension is not adhering to the standards. i write extensions and i never have this issue. fix your extension.

Amanda Mantegna (ID: 000000593f192aea) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 10/19/2023 This service is amazing! I am glad that there is an extension available so my texts are always just one click away!

Brenda Yeung (ID: 00000043b984c1b8) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 10/18/2023 I love using Text Request for my daily activities when interacting with customers. The chrome extension makes it really easy to send a quick text without having to switch or go back on the website

The Bankruptcy Firm Ogden (ID: 00000024506a79f3) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 10/14/2023 The extension is a great addition to the Text Request Dashboard. We use text messaging to interact daily with our clients and it is nice to be in our CRM software and be able to instantly access the entire text history with a client and also be able to communicate with them without having to leave the tab I'm working in.

Janet Vine (ID: 000000dd18400063) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 09/27/2023 Incredible extension to maximize getting things done immediately instead of it being a to do task or switching to another screen.
