# DialMyCalls is easy to use, but how do you handle the SMS character limit?

DialMyCalls has been affordable and easy to navigate, and it is simple to log in from both phone and desktop. The main challenge has been the limited number of characters allowed in text messages, which makes it harder to communicate when texting is the primary way to reach parents. For those using it regularly, how are you working around the character limit while still keeping messages clear?

Hi,
If there is ever a message that is too long for the character limit, I feel it should not be a text and should be a memo in an email. You then can use this service to send a text to say "we sent some important information to everyone's email today. Please review it and reach out to XXXX if you have any questions, ideas or concerns. 
Thanks, "

I tend to run into issues the other way where my messages are too short for the voice service and have to add filler.  

That has been how I personally worked around this issue.
