Mobile Pop Up Notifications
You can customize settings on your SmartPhone to alert you with a pop up when an SMS notification is received. Here's how:
iPhone Users
Add "voicemail@numberbarn.com" as a VIP in Apple Mail. Instructions on this process can be found here. That way, when you receive an SMS email notification, a custom alert will display on your phone to let you know a message is waiting. Sounds can also be added. Note messages must be in your Inbox, not a separate box, for notifications to arrive.
Android Users
Set up VIP notifications in the Email app to let you know when "voicemail@numberbarn.com" has delivered a fresh SMS your way. Instructions on this process can be found here.
Gmail Users
Create a VIP Label in Gmail to filter messages from "voicemail@numberbarn.com" to your Inbox. You can also customize a sound to let you know a message is waiting. Detailed instructions on this process can be found here.
