Success Story: TextFree Serves A Billion Texts In Less Than 9 Months

February 18, 2010

The idea of replacing your text messaging plan with an app and Push Notifications is getting incredibly popular.

Indeed, iPhone app developer company Pinger, the creators of Textfree, told Techcrunch that over the last 9 month, they delivered as much as a Billion text messages through their app.

An important success factor of the service is apparently its capability to integrate with Google Voice, which is indeed extremely convenient. Lastly, this massive usage has allowed the company to finally turn in a profit, making it another App Store success story. Congrats!
