What SMS messages we send
When you create an account with So You Know™, you'll receive SMS text messages at the phone number you provide. These messages include:
- Delivery notifications — when someone records a voice message for you, you'll receive a text with a link to listen.
- Scheduled reminders — gentle nudges to record messages for people you've added to your circle (e.g., "It's been a month — say hi to Mom").
- Account activity — alerts about important account events, such as scheduled Time Capsule deliveries.

After entering your mobile phone number, you must actively tap a dedicated, unmarked checkbox to agree to receive SMS messages from us. SMS consent is presented as a separate checkbox from Terms of Service and Privacy Policy agreement.
