### Parameters

* **Number** *\<string> -* The phone number that the user wants to send a text message.
* **Report** *\<unquoetd string> -* Defines if the user wants to receive a delivery report or not. This parameter is only used in Windows Mobile/CE.
* **Text** *\<string> -* The text message that the user wants to send.

{% hint style="warning" %}
Because of October 2018 Google Policy Change, Designer will no longer automatically activate the Send\_SMS permission for Android, and in this case Kalipso will use an Intent to send the SMS. You can still manually force this permission when generating the APK, and in this case, if the permission is active, Kalipso will use the previous SMS method that sends the SMS without showing the window for the user to confirm.
{% endhint %}
