What Pulse does

Pulse replaces your phone's messaging app. It sends and receives SMS, MMS and group messages, and keeps them in Android's own message store on your phone.

It finds verification codes so you can copy them in one tap, and sorts your inbox into personal chats, codes, transactions, offers and updates. All of this runs on your phone. There is no account and no Pulse server.

A 49 second look at Pulse: a sorted inbox, codes in one tap, reactions and voice notes, chat wallpapers, scheduled messages and the Wear OS app.

What you get

  • Codes in one tap

    Verification codes are found on your phone, with a Copy code button in the chat, the inbox, notifications and search.

  • A sorted inbox

    Tabs for Personal, OTPs, Transactions, Offers and Updates, spam scoring on your phone, and blocking by number or word.

  • Rich messages

    Reactions, voice notes, photos, video, files, contact cards, GIFs from your keyboard and your location as a map link.

  • Send it later

    Undo send, scheduled messages, reminders, starred messages, quick replies and a signature.

  • Private by design

    Lock the app or a private vault with your fingerprint, hide notification text, and back up to a file you choose, with optional encryption.

  • Wear OS

    Read and reply from your watch by voice, keyboard or quick reply, with a tile and a watch face complication.
