We're pleased to announce that we will be bringing 10-5 to your mobile phone!
At this moment I'm working on an SMS bot that will let you view your 10-5 balance and send coins to contacts using their (anonymous) 10-5 codes.
It's still in testing, but we're quite happy with the results so far.
See the below screenshots for how the service works:

As you can see this is just using your default messaging app,
you don't have to install any new apps to use this.
We aren't forgetting the people out there without unlimited texting plans though!
If you've used Whatsapp, you probably know
Telegram, the app that a large chunk of Whatsapp users switched to after Facebook bought Whatsapp.
If you've used neither: Telegram is basically an app that lets you send (secure, encrypted) text messages over your data connection for free.
This version of the bot isn't as far along, but we're quite happy with how it's turning out:

We'd also like to support Whatsapp in the future, as there are still a lot of people on there, but their terms of use are very strict and they've been known to instantly disable Whatsapp accounts that run a bot.
We'll be looking into contacting Whatsapp for an official statement and we will keep you updated.
Any feedback is appreciated, we'll let you know when the bot is stable and ready for use.
