If your hosting provider sends critical alerts by SMS to your number, stop being the only one who sees them at 3 AM. Forward those SMS into a shared team Telegram chat so whoever is on shift catches the ping.
100 SMS per month on the Free plan, direct APK install, no SMS shared with anyone outside your account.
Cloudflare, Hetzner, OVH, Selectel, every hosting provider sends critical notifications (failover, blocked IP, quota exceeded) by SMS to the responsible admin's number. If that admin is on vacation, on a flight, or asleep, the alert disappears. The team finds out about the incident an hour later, from a customer.
SMS Sender 24 solves this in three steps. Put the admin SIM in a spare Android phone (an old one works fine, minimum Android 8.0), install the app, and every incoming SMS gets forwarded into your team's #alerts Telegram channel. Everyone sees it at the same time.
Set it up once, runs 24/7 on a spare phone in the server room.
Free via Google or email. You get a personal dashboard with all the settings.
Install the Android app on a spare smartphone, scan the QR code. After that the phone just sits there and listens for SMS.
Create a rule: "from HetznerOps or contains CRITICAL → Telegram #alerts". Done.
"Our host sends an SMS when our load balancer loses connection to one of the upstreams. Before, the alert went to my personal phone, and by the time I drove to the office, customers were already complaining. I put SMS Sender 24 on a spare smartphone, now the alert hits our @infra-alerts Telegram in 2 seconds and the whole team sees it. The on-call dev brings the upstream back before customers notice."
Free plan forever: 100 SMS per month, 1 phone, Telegram and email channels. No card, no trial.
