Can SMS reminders include content?

varrus Pro says:

When I get an SMS reminder from RTM, it says that I need to reply with "Read" to see what the reminder is actually for. This doesn't save me any money, and is a hassle - I'd prefer to know what the reminder is about in the first message. Is there any way to set this?

Am I totally out to lunch on this one? My phone is on Rogers in Canada, does it perhaps work differently on other mobile carriers?

Hi varrus,

We use the email-to-SMS service provided by your mobile provider to send reminders (you'd need to check with them to determine if there are any charges for receiving these messages).

Unfortunately I'm not familiar with Rogers' service, but they might be able to tell you if there's a way to configure their email-to-SMS service to send you the message content directly.

Hope this helps!
