What features are available on the Home screen? Language support At launch, FrontlineSMS comes with language support for English, Spanish, French, Portuguese and Chinese, with other languages in the pipeline. You can change the on-screen language of your FrontlineSMS installation by clicking on the relevant country flag in Switch language [1], or via the Settings → Language menu. Languages such as Chinese will only display correctly if your computer supports the additional character sets required. Refer to your Windows user manual for details Quick-send SMS Messages can be quickly sent to individuals ("One-off messages") or Groups through the Send SMS portion of the screen [2]. Send SMS is the Home screen equivalent of the SendConsole in the FrontlineSMS "Classic View". Messages sent through Send SMS will be automatically sent via a Clickatell or IntelliSMS account, if you have one and you are connected to the internet (Clickatell or IntelliSMS sending is quicker and cheaper). If you do not have a Clickatell or IntelliSMS account, or your account fails for some reason, FrontlineSMS will use the first available phone from PhoneManager if you have any attached Viewing FrontlineSMS activity You can get an overview of
