How can we hide/change sender's mobile number while sending a SMS to a receiver.
For example if I send a sms to some number 1234567890, the receiver can receive my sms without knowing my number.
I had gone through in couple of Questions in Stack Overflow regarding this and it was mentioned that it is not possible to hide / change the sender number.
But I can see some apps in android market which hides the sender SMS number.
Note : In the app, they had clearly mentioned
Your network-operator must support hiding your caller ID.
I want to know if Network Providers in the US support this option or not. Also how can I find out my Network provider supports this and what API I have to use for hiding the sender's mobile number?
It would be awesome if I got any clue in this
Here are the existing questions
Here's the App Link
HIDING CALLER ID ON ANDROID SMARTPHONETap on the three dots in the corner and select the settings button. Click on call settings, then click on additional settings. Click on caller ID. Click the hide number option.
You can create different sender IDs under Account -> Settings->Sender ID. When sending the SMS, you can then select the desired identifier in the "Sender id" field. It is also possible to enter a new sender directly into this field.
No.
But what you can do is use an SMS gateway which enables you to hide the callerID or which gives it a specific name. Just an alternative suggestion.
for example take that site, http://api.textmagic.com/ -> http://api.textmagic.com/https-api/textmagic-api-commands#send
