tmpsms is a POSIX sh command-line utility for obtaining a temporary phone number and receiving SMS messages via Upmasked's temporary SMS service. It was aimed at privacy-conscious users and bug bounty hunters testing applications.
Use cases
- receive SMS verification codes without giving out my real phone number
- get a disposable phone number from the terminal for testing signups
- test SMS-based flows during bug bounty hunting
- protect my privacy when registering on websites requiring phone verification
- script temporary phone number acquisition into my workflow
When to choose
- you need a throwaway phone number for one-off signups or testing and have no alternative tool
- you want a minimal POSIX sh script that integrates with other shell scripts
When to avoid
- you need a working tool today - the upstream Upmasked service has shut down and tmpsms no longer functions
- you need ongoing SMS receiving or long-term phone numbers
- you expect maintenance or new features - the author has stated development is unlikely to resume
