Alarmas RAL by RAAT description

ContrAll your GSM alarms, smart home appliances and other services or utilities via SMS

This is a universal app used to send predefined SMS messages to your home alarm, in an easy and organised way:
- No need to type difficult-to-remember text commands that only your GSM alarm/remote understands.
- And no need to type the same message every time.

Recipients are organised in tabs, with a number of fixed or customizable buttons.

- Each recipient/tab can have it's own name and phone number.
- Each tab can have a number of fixed or customizable buttons.
- Each button has a title (what you see written on it) and a command (sms which is actually being sent).
- Sms sent and delivery reports.
- Everything is wtitten to "sent" items.

BACKUP-RESTORE menu:
***BE SURE TO BACKUP IN THIS WAY BEFORE*** ever reinstalling the app! Otherwise, Android erases all it's files and settings during uninstall, with no possibility to recover. Backup made in this way (to SD card) is not touched during uninstall.

BACKUP makes a single xml file for each tab that you export (preference_ur_0, preference_ur_1, ..ur_2). For the RESTORE to work, filename must be *exactly* as created by the app during backup.

PERMISSIONS:
SEND_SMS - Obvious, as this is the application's primary function.
READ_PHONE_STATE - some newer phones (ie. Lenovo A328, LG Optimus G...) require this permission to send SMS.
READ_CONTACTS - required to use phonebook for selecting a tab's name and phone number.
WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE - to backup/resore individual tab settings to a text file on SD card's /Download folder.
