iMessage Specifications

To use myCRMSIM for iMessage, your devices must meet the following minimum specifications:

• iOS Version: iOS 12.0 or higher is required.
  

• Recommended Models:
  

• iPhone 6s and newer

• iPhone SE (2nd Gen or later)

• iPhone 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 (All models)

⚠️ iPhone 6 can only run up to iOS 12.5.7. While technically supported, it's not recommended due to performance limitations.

Please not some older iPhones may not support SMS text message forwarding

• macOS Version: macOS Mojave (10.14) or later

• Supported Models (Late 2014 or newer):

• MacBook

• MacBook Air

• MacBook Pro

• Mac Mini

• iMac

• iMac Pro

• Mac Pro

• Mac Studio

These Macs can be used to access iMessage via the web or the desktop version of the app.

Both devices must be on and connected to the internet for our integration to operate successfully.

NOTE: You can connect multiple instances on one MAC by setting up different user profiles on the Mac machine and installing our sms gateway app and setting up iMessage accounts on each profile separately.  

This will continue to work in the background when switching between profiles allowing you to use one mac machine for multiple account connections as long as you use smart switching to change between profiles rather than logging in and out of each profile.

Our SMS gateway device will prevent the mac from going to sleep in order for iMessage to keep operating.

In System Preferences, you must turn on the "Automatically turn back on after a power failure" option in order for your Mac to reboot after a power failure. In addition, turn on the "Startup with macOS" option in the mySMS Gateway App settings to make sure it runs when you login.
