A module that allows sending SMS and WhatsApp for free from your own mobile phone and receiving SMS on your mobile phone, all for free since the mobile plan is used
SMS Mobile API is a Python module that allows developers to send SMS messages, retrieve received SMS messages, and send WhatsApp messages via the SMS Mobile API.
Before using this module, you must first install the SMS Mobile API mobile app on your Android or iOS device. This app is required to connect your phone to the API for sending and receiving SMS messages.
Once the app is installed and configured, you can obtain your API key from within the app to use with this Python module.
The connection to WhatsApp is handled through the SMS Mobile API dashboard.
This process does not require a WhatsApp Business account or identity verification. Thanks to our simplified and secure authentication process, you can quickly link your WhatsApp account and start sending WhatsApp messages without any per-message costs.
To set up your WhatsApp connection:
Create a new account in the SMS Mobile API app (or use the account already set up for managing SMS if you have one).

Configure a connection with WhatsApp through the WhatsApp Config menu in the dashboard:
Connect WhatsApp Here
Once configured, you'll be able to send WhatsApp messages seamlessly through our API.

If the phone number is +1 555-123-4567
, enter it as 15551234567

You can install the module directly from PyPI:
pip install smsmobileapi
