Mass Text Personalizer




This app allows you to send many of your contacts the same message, but with their first name inserted somewhere in the message. This gives your mass texts a personal touch for each contact.

I created this project last September, after I moved into my residence at Waterloo. I had just switched to a new Waterloo number, and I had to tell all of my contacts. At first, I thought I could just send everyone the same generic text: "Hi, this is my new number - Sahil Jain." That type of text seemed too impersonal for my close friends, so I decided to put their first names into text: "Hi FIRSTNAME, this is my new number - Sahil Jain." I created this app to accomplish the task of replacing FIRSTNAME with the contacts first name. Every recipient thought that I personally typed out each text, and they were touched.
