User reviews

I think this app is on its deathbed so I would recommend not installing or signing up/paying for the Pro version anymore. It no longer functions consistently in latest Chrome versions, and the company website seems to be mostly a museum piece dating back several years without news of any fixes. I wish they would update it as it was useful extension/ app for many years.

I've been using MightyText for about five or six years, and it's always worked perfectly until a couple of weeks ago. The extension won't sync my phone's app notifications anymore, plus it keeps disconnecting frequently. They really need to fix this in the next update, and it needs to be soon.

App doesn't seem to like Google Chrome and Vise Versa. I have to use the "backdoor" to access it. I'd give it 4.5 stars if it wasn't for this latest issue. I'm blaming Google for this nightmare.
