How to send text message from desktop application.
-
There is Twiio but since they do not support C++ (or even C) you'll have to use the JavaScript API wrapped in your app

Looks pretty cool but it seems it has start cost of
"one-time setup fee of $650 " ?
or did read that wrong ? -
None of these services are free (for obvious reasons) sinch doesn't look to have a one-off fee

@VRonin
well would also just be bad
business model if all was free :) ( for them)It does seems they are good to start with
"The Sinch SMS API is enabled to send SMS at prices starting from just $0.005. Pay as you go. No additional monthly fees. No commitments."
thx :)

Twilio is $650 if you want to use a short code in the US. Otherwise, you just pay $1 per month per number and then the per message charge.
Also, you can use the REST API and just do simple POST/GET requests (using QNetworkAccessManager for example). I've done this successfully with python and the requests module.

There is a third-party (read: unsupported) C++ library for Twilio - https://github.com/laurentluce/twilio-cplusplus
There's probably others too, but I used that one successfully a couple of years ago (with gcc C++ on CentOS).
Cheers.
