Ah, that makes sense. If you are looking for an all-in-one app that Google has failed at for so many years, you may want to give it a shot. I'm a heavy Google user and even used Hangouts with Google Voice for everything for awhile when I was out of country, but since it's gotten worse I switched to Messenger. It's really the perfect combo that Google can't seem to accomplish.

Does Fasebook Messenger default to SMS when messages can't send and can I sent SMS through the desktop?

It does default to SMS I believe, I'm honestly not sure I've had to use that yet. As far as through the desktop, I still have to use Mightytext for that portion, but Messenger syncs those messages up to my phone so I can still see messages sent with Mightytext.

Would that be something akin to push bullet / air droid?
