  1. I would like to be able to order the template texts alphabetically or what ever so that I can find them in a logical order. ie - all texts pertaining to Reminders, or Paperwork Due, etc. - I like and use the templates every day. I used to have a text file on the side of my RC that I would cut and paste into RC. So great addition!

  2. Currently, E911 SMS notifications are only going through when there is a single recipient registered in the admin portal. However, when multiple recipients are added, the SMS notifications fail to send.

    Having multiple recipients for E911 SMS notifications is important because it ensures that critical emergency alerts are immediately received by more than one responsible party. This redundancy helps guarantee that someone is always notified, even if one recipient is unavailable, offline, or unable to respond. In emergency situations, timely awareness is crucial, and relying on a single contact increases the risk of delayed response.

  3. I'd love to see the new "Send New Text" pop-up window reverted back to the old format where you could see any prior text history when sending a new text. The new popup window has a constricting feel, especially when texting someone there's prior history with that you can't see in the same way as you used to when clicking the "Send New Text" button

  6. The Admin Portal needs to have a feature where users with an extension can send a text message to the number, which will provide information depending on the users' questions, such as schedules.

    It will also be beneficial to customers to save time.

  7. Currently there is not a way to grant access to managers/supervisors to the SMS messages their team members send and receive. There is the ability to grant this type of access to user's call logs using User Groups. Would be great if SMS messages could be part of what is imparted with User Group permissions.

  8. I have advised my clients that when they want to cancel their appointment for my business to send a text message containing the word "CANCEL" to my company number. Instead of me receiving just the SMS those customers ending up on the OPTED-OUT numbers, now I have no way of sending SMS to them. Please remove this keyword "Cancel" from automatically going to opted out number, my keyword for opting out of SMS is "STOP"

    Thank you for this feedback!


    As a workaround while this is being reviewed, instead of asking customers to respond with the word Cancel, you could ask to respond with 1 to Accept and 2 to Cancel.

  9. Ability to forward an Incoming SMS from one phone number to an email.

  10. On the RingCentral desktop app, you used to be able to see the full SMS history when you went to create a new SMS text. Now when you create a new SMS text message, you don't see the history. It was super helpful to have the history there any time you created a new SMS message. The new functionality is not great for awareness of the most recent text message.

  11. For messages and texting when you highlight the message you want read it just says the person's name! Really annoying. Need text-to-speech option and then speech-to-text that's easier. This also needs to be compatible with Echo, CarPlay, etc. Need more features for the busy professional on the go please!

  12. Summary:
    In the current implementation of the AI Receptionist (AIR), the SMS messaging feature is restricted to using only the super admin extension as the sending number. This limits flexibility and usability for organizations that require communication to be routed through other user extensions or departments.

    Current Behavior:

    When accessing the “Send Text Message” feature within the AI Receptionist, only the super admin extension is available as the sending number.

    There is no option to select or assign another user extension or number.

    Requested Enhancement:

    Provide the ability to select from a list of eligible user extensions or direct numbers…

  13. Upgrade Text Messaging Features to the RCS protocol in RingCentral.

    "The latest major standard for text messaging is Rich Communication Services (RCS), which provides modern features like high-resolution media sharing and improved group chats, as an upgrade to SMS/MMS."

    This request has been made before and has been "Under Review" since April 2022. It does not take over 3 years to upgrade an app to the latest feature especially when it is widespread. RingCentral risks becoming outdated and obsolete as competitors are already using the protocol. If it's difficult to implement in the RingCentral app then perhaps consider creating a…

  16. Instead of large group texts where everyone can respond to each other we have an option of creating a large group that send individual texts to a mass group by a click of a button instead of entering every individual persons contact every time

  18. Filter receive SMS/ MMS to automatically block unwanted messages.

    Specific user is receiving unwanted text messages we highly suggest for the system to filter the SMS received for unwanted SMS and automatically block them in RingCentral phone numbers.

  19. Description:
    Currently, the “Text Send Failure” notification continues to appear in the SMS thread preview, even if the failed message occurred long ago. This can cause confusion for users, as it gives the impression that the most recent message did not go through successfully.

    Suggested Improvement:
    The “Text Send Failure” indicator should automatically disappear from the SMS thread preview once the user reopens the conversation.

    Current Limitation:
    At present, the only way to remove the notification is to edit and resend the failed message or delete all failed SMS messages, which can be time-consuming — especially when the failed messages…

  20. When sending bulk SMS through RingCentral, messages to T-Mobile numbers often fail if too many are sent at once due to their rate-limiting feature. I suggest adding a scheduling feature that automatically sends messages in smaller batches. This would reduce failed messages, ensure important messages reach recipients, and improve the overall reliability of bulk SMS campaigns.
