hey, can you help with installation playsms on my vps with android integrations?

[yusf]

@kogtuowski It’s not yet available as a Cloudron app.

[Lonkle]

Definitely interested in this web app, great suggestion. I may try to get this running smoothly in Cloudron, testing and whatnot.

We use https://www.bulksms.com/ at the mo - but would be interested and help test PlaySMS if it were comparable.

We're using https://www.smslocal.com/ right now. We'd be interested in checking out PlaySMS (https://playsms.org/) and could help test it, especially if it can do what we need it to do compared to our current setup. We know it's open-source and you have to set it up yourself with a gateway, so that's something to keep in mind.
