Thanks for the tutorial pretty printed i want to use this nexmo to send a randomly generated code to users for them to confirm their phone numbers in my flask app can nexmo do this for free or the require some payments ? Thanks

You'd probably have to sign up for one of their plans to do that.

Does this sends the message to any phone no? which were not even registered in nexmo.

[@prettyprinted]

Yes, you can message any number.

[@saikrishnathatikonda2836]

@@prettyprinted But I am unable to do so.Do make so do i need to register all the numbers first.

[@prettyprinted]

@@saikrishnathatikonda2836 You probably have to sign up for a paid account as well. Otherwise free accounts would just be used for spam.

[@robinrai341]

its possible to send message message automatically?

[@prettyprinted]

Of course, it depends on the needs of your app. But there's not much of difference between what I demonstrated in the video and doing it automatically.

[@tamaldas3544]

is it free for lifetime?

[@prettyprinted]

You'd have to ask Nexmo that.

[@joetilsed]

Can see your number @ 7:19

[@prettyprinted]

Thanks for letting me know. It's hard to catch everything when editing.

[@joetilsed]

Pretty Printed no worries :)
