Once you have downloaded our software you will need to connect a compatible device in order to send and receive messages.

FrontlineSMS Version 2 runs in your browser. We support Chrome, Firefox (v 3.5 or later), and Internet Explorer (v 7 and 8 or later). We are actively working to support earlier versions of Firefox and Internet Explorer. For best results, please update your browser at the same time as updating or installing Version 2.

Free technical support is also provided via our community site, but is only available to organizations or individuals using FrontlineSMS for non-profit-making activities. If you do not fall into this category, or if you would like more support, please get in touch by emailing services@frontlinesms.com to find out about our service contracts, project design, training consultancy and technical support services.

Some functionality, including our FrontlineForms tool, which allows you to create electronic versions of simple data collection forms, is only available on Version 1 of FrontlineSMS. Find out more and decide which version of the software you need here.
