You can also set up a recurring calendar meeting / reminder (mobile popup) at set time every night.

Or put a (sticky) note in your siddur. That works on Shabbos and Yom Tov too.

Anyone have a recommendation for a software to setup a reminder system via text for this sort of usage? I have mailchimp but they don't have their own sms system.

Quotes in a signature is annoying, as it comes across as an independent post.

For some reason it's working on my Verizon phone but not on my wife's AT&T phone.

Any other systems still alive? There were tons when Twitter texting worked. Any other text-based systems working still?

Does the email part still work? Then you can send email to <yournumber>@<carriersmsgateway>

ETA: Confirmed number@tmomail.net works for T-mobile.
