That’s it. You can now personalize mass text messages to your contacts with ease!

A few notes:

  • You’ll see a preview of your variable inside the phone to the right. The variable will be highlighted in a darker shade of blue to indicate it is a variable.
  • You can easily copy/paste the variable code to move it around in your message, or simply enter your variable code into the message field at any time.
