Getting Started with TextMyStocks

What is TextMyStocks?

TextMyStocks is an SMS-based service that provides real-time U.S. stock market data without the need for apps or internet access. Perfect for users with dumbphones or basic feature phones, it lets you receive stock prices by sending a text message.

With TextMyStocks, you can text a stock ticker symbol (e.g., AAPL) to get instant updates on current prices and daily changes. For detailed company financials, just text "INFO" followed by the ticker symbol to understand key fundamentals.

How It Works
