SMS from Chrome, fully sync'd with your Android phone

We built this because our experience with Google Voice was awkward. Having multiple phone #'s didn't work for us.

This basically mirrors the SMS activity/stream on your phone, onto a Chrome extension.

If you're using multiple numbers with Google Voice, you're doing it wrong and missing the entire point.

"Mirroring SMS conversation in a chrome extension" is precisely what Google Voice does. I can receive and reply to texts from any keyboard with a keyboard, or from my phone if I'm AFK.

You should try this out for a few hours and see the difference.

Just the fact that it gives you HTML5 Desktop Notifications with easy way to reply, and syncs with your actual texting stream on your phone (not GV) makes it worth looking at.

I don't have an "actual texting stream". My texting is all 100% free and through my Google Voice number. Google Voice offers me more features than this application can by the very nature of how it works.
