AgrimSMS help

Connect a phone

1. Download your deployment’s Android app and install it.
2. In Dashboard, create a device with its name, primary phone number and assigned phone-user name. Save the permanent code.
3. Enter that code in AgrimSMS on the phone, grant permissions and tap Sync now.

The phone checks for messages every 15 minutes and on manual sync. Android power management may delay background checks.

SMS permissions and background activity

On the phone, open Settings → Apps → AgrimSMS → Permissions and allow SMS. On Android 15 or newer, sideloaded apps may require the menu option Allow restricted settings first.

Allow background activity and turn off battery optimization for AgrimSMS. Open the app’s Health screen to inspect permission and SIM status.

Short codes and send failures

If Android asks to allow a short-code message, approve it on the phone. Premium SMS access is controlled in Android’s Special app access settings. Check the carrier balance, signal and selected SIM when a send fails.

Missing delivery confirmation alone does not trigger a resend. Retrying an uncertain send may duplicate an SMS.

Bulk SMS and integrations

Upload a CSV with from_phone and to_phone. Ten-digit numbers default to India (+91). Each From phone must match a paired, enabled device’s saved primary number in your account.

Account API keys are optional for external software. Android pairs using its permanent device code.

Privacy

Your deployment stores device information, SMS content and status history on its backend. Incoming SMS upload and webhook subscriptions are configured separately. Ask your administrator about access, retention and configured external integrations.

Usage and support

Your administrator provides the usage terms and privacy policy for this installation. Contact them for access, configuration or support. Carrier charges and phone sending restrictions still apply.
