Do you prefer typing on your computer’s keyboard instead of your Android’s touchscreen? Maybe you have a job where you have to keep your phone tucked away and you still want to be able to text your friends and relatives. Whatever your reason for wanting to text from your computer, Zipwhip is an app that can facilitate this in the easiest way possible.

To use Zipwhip, you need to install the application on your Android smartphone and on the devices from which you want to text. If you prefer not to install anything on your Mac or PC, you can use it directly from your web browser. Setting everything up takes just a few minutes, and you will be ready to start texting anyone from anywhere.

The best part of Zipwhip is that it uses your phone number. No more downloading programs that assign you some weird phone number that none of your friends know. It goes through your Android device, so you keep the number your friends are accustomed to, and you get the convenience of texting on your computer.
Features:
- Easy to use desktop and tablet texting through your Android.
- Uses your regular phone number.
- Works in browser, on your desktop or on your Android tablet.
- Desktop alerts when you receive a new text.

is there a similar software, that works for numbers in europe`?
as far as I understand, the software works only for US numbers?
That’s a very good question, we will certainly look into it for a future article.
In meantime, I would recommend heading to makeuseof.com/answers and asking our experts over there for help. If there is such a service, one of our experts will be able to help!
Hi Dave,
We do support international use. We’ve seen a few issues with several countries outside the US, but things are largely working as they should be. Thanks a bunch.
