How to Send Free Bulk SMS from Excel Using Your Phone (FREE Template) | QuickText
QuickText: A Free SMS Bulk Sender from Excel
You know that moment when you need to send the same message to a bunch of people and your phone suddenly feels like a tiny inbox factory? That’s where I come in. I’m Sven from Coding Is Fun, and I built QuickText so you can send SMS messages straight from Excel. Think of QuickText as your spreadsheet doing the heavy lifting while your Android phone handles the actual delivery. If you’re looking for a Free SMS Bulk Sender that uses your existing mobile plan—this is for you.
Why QuickText? A quick story
Last week I needed to message a dozen customers with personalized pickup times. Typing each message on my phone felt like using a wet paintbrush to write on a billboard—slow and messy. So I made something simpler: a lightweight Excel template that sends messages through your Android phone (no cloud, no extra fees, no middleman). The result: a reliable Free SMS Bulk Sender that keeps your replies on your phone and your data on your devices.
What QuickText does (plain English)
In plain English: QuickText is an Excel template that connects your PC to your Android phone using KDE Connect. You type numbers and messages in Excel, hit send, and your phone sends the SMS using your SIM card. That means no per-message fees, no third-party services, and replies go straight to your phone like normal.
Key benefits
- No hidden fees—messages use your existing mobile plan.
- Works anywhere you have Excel and an Android phone (Germany, the US, India—wherever mobile coverage exists).
- No cloud or external servers—your data stays local.
- Fast and familiar—if you know Excel, you already know how to use it.
How it works (step-by-step)
Before we dive into the small print, here’s why each step matters: KDE Connect creates a secure bridge between your PC and Android phone so Excel can ask your phone to send SMS. Your phone sends them, so carriers still bill normally and replies appear in your native SMS app.
- Install KDE Connect on your PC (free) and on your Android phone.
- Pair your phone and computer over the same WiFi network.
- Open the QuickText Excel template and click “connect your phone.”
- Select your phone from the list and confirm the connection.
- Enter phone numbers and message text directly into the spreadsheet and press send.
Features that make life easier
QuickText isn’t just a brute-force sender. It includes handy tools that take away the usual headaches:
- Placeholders and personalization: Use fields like {first_name} to make each SMS feel personal.
- Test mode: Preview messages before anything is sent—handy for catching typos or wrong numbers.
- Number cleaning: Automatic formatting and validation to reduce bounce rates.
- Spintext: Create slightly different phrasing across messages so they don’t look like robotic copy-paste.
- Custom delays: Space out sends to avoid hitting any carrier rate limitations (or to keep things polite).
Who should use this Free SMS Bulk Sender?
If you already use Excel and you want to reach customers, clients, or teammates without paying per message or learning new software, this is targeted at you. Small businesses, community organizers, and teams that value privacy (no external servers) will particularly like it.
Limitations and important notes
Let’s keep it real—QuickText is simple by design, which brings a few constraints:
- Requires an Android phone (iOS isn’t supported because of SMS API restrictions).
- Your PC and phone must be on the same WiFi network for KDE Connect pairing.
- Messages are billed by your carrier as regular SMS (no extra fees from QuickText).
- Send volume depends on your phone/carrier—use custom delays if you plan large campaigns.
How to get started right now
- Download the QuickText template from the Coding Is Fun site.
- Install KDE Connect on PC and Android, pair the devices, open QuickText, and connect.
- Fill in your contacts and personalize messages with placeholders.
- Turn on test mode to preview, then send one or many.
Wrapping up
QuickText is a practical Free SMS Bulk Sender that lets your spreadsheet do the heavy lifting while your phone handles the delivery. No cloud, no tracking, no per-message fees—just Excel, your Android, and a few clicks. Try it out; if you’re anything like me, you’ll enjoy the small victory of sending a hundred personalized messages without ever touching your phone’s tiny keyboard.
Give QuickText a try and stay in control of your messages and your data. Happy texting.
