    I was wondering if there was a way to have Entune send a SMS message when charging has started, completed, or interrupted. Currently, these alerts are sent to the email address which I used for my Entune login.

    Thanks!

    Thanks for the link, ryogajyc. I was thinking of using my phone provider SMS email address ({phone_number}@{wireless_provider}.com.) but I do not want all my Entune correspondence (such as newsletter) going to my text inbox. I wish there was a way to setup an email address for regular email notices and SMS for charging status alerts.

    I too would like that feature but I think maybe Toyota ommited it as not everyone has an unlimited text plan. Maybe this will be an option, "coming soon".

    start a separate email address for your charging status alerts and forward your new email address to your old one.

    Leave your E-mail software running (or do it via G-Mail), and create a rule to forward?

    Thank you both for the suggestions. I'll give it a try.
