<h2>CrossWords and Play-via-Data-SMS</h2>
|
||||
<p>Play-via-Data-SMS is one of my favorite features of
|
||||
CrossWords. It's super-reliable, and works between GSM phones
|
||||
round-the-world without requiring any kind of server. Most apps
|

have servers in order to harvest saleable infomation about you

|
||||
has always supported this feature.</p>

<p>Unfortunately, Google's decided there are security problems
|

with SMS (or at least that's their claimed motivation) and is

prohibiting most apps from continuing to send or receive SMS
|

(including Data SMS) if they want to be listed on the Play

<p>I've also starting working on a data-SMS-forwarding app called

NBSProxy. With NBSProxy installed, CrossWords can communicate

using Data SMS without the SMS permissions (since NBSProxy has
