Can you hide the phonenumbers ?
In Pushbullet and TellyVisual it can show the three last digits or hide it all.
Great question! It doesn't show audience phone numbers. The numbers you see are your number that people should text. We know people don't want to share their personal phone numbers. We actually showed a few digits in early development but that just confused people, so we hide it altogether.

No problem to make the text background transparent with TellyVisual.
Very easy to make different layouts with fonts etc..

Sorry, I missed this. At the moment, you do not have the ability to use a transparent banner in JammText. We are evaluating more customization options in the future. One thing I'll note is we tried to make the banner overlay as legible as possible without interrupting the video. It sits lower on the screen than other programs and with bigger font. This increases your interaction in situations where you might only have 40 inch tvs in a big room. Since many videos are shot in cinema widescreen and not 16:9, much of the JammText display is below the video anyway.

Just a quick note since "Pangolin" was mentioned.
There is a free version of our system which is quite capable. Works with and without VDJ. Biggest cost would be the modem, but E182E costs typically less then $50 on eBay or Amazon...

With all due respect, Pangolin's free version is still not free of other charges. In addition to the $50 modem, you need a phone plan. When I've priced it out, it was $16/month to add a line on my cell plan. Compare that to $19.99/month for JammText, which already includes a phone plan with your own dedicated number. There is no service to our knowledge that does SMS/MMS 100% for free.
We also have a free 1 month trial available now - check it out on our site!

I had JammText for several months.
I tested software at home quite a bit on a fast wired internet connection. The software worked Great!!. I used Twitter, Instagram, etc and I got the pictures and messages on my computer within a few seconds.
I then tried the software in the real world and had horrible results. I am a mobile DJ and many places either don't have WI-FI or it is too slow to be of any use. I would send pictures or text from my phone to phone number provided or tried Twitter/Instagram and if I was lucky they would appear up to 30 minutes later. Usually they did not show up on my computer at all.
I dropped the service recently since I did not see any use paying for software that I could not use.
Now if you are a DJ in a Club and have a internet connection that works, then the software would be useful.

Hi Dale, sorry to hear about your experience. Do you have 4g data on your phone? We've had very good experience tethering when WiFi isn't available. For most events, JammText shouldn't use more than 50MB of data, so it shouldn't burn through your data plan either. There are also a few best practices you can do to minimize data usage at your event, for example, create your montage ahead of time and don't modify it during your event.

Is Jammtext available outside of the USA. I would like to try this but am in the UK is this available to us over here ?

Yes, JammText is available outside of the USA since social media messages are supported worldwide. However, SMS and MMS are currently supported only in the US and Canada at this time.

With JammText 1.2, you can adjust the transparency of the boxes and change the highlight font colors as well. JammText offers a dark and white theme, and you can also change the background image if running JammText in "fullscreen" mode. Here are some screenshot examples:

Will JammText work with VDJ 7 or will it only work with VDJ 8?

VDJ8+ if you want to use JammText with your music videos. To be clear, JammText will work on both (VDJ7 & 8) for non video djing use... but you need at least VDJ8 if you want to run JammText as a banner overlay on top of your music videos. You also may need to adjust a setting in VDJ. Here is some info on how to adjust the setting: http://mixcityinc.com/support.html#!articles/857-5364-jammtext-is-hiding-behind-the-video-how-do-i-fix-this
