I don't want to carry around a smart phone (for several reasons), but reliance on commons apps has made it difficult to give up.<p>I've been dreaming of a dumb phone that could provide access to the same apps via SMS similar to a command line interface.<p>So the user experience would be for e.g. to order Chipotle, you could text:<p>"chipotle -mode delivery -order favorite1"<p>Or to get directions, you'd text:<p>"google-maps -from '111 newage rd 80014' -to 757 thisisgreat ave. 80207"<p>Now I know this is NOT for everyone.
However, I'm curious to know if this resonates with anyone.<p>Would an open source project that provides an SMS interface to common apps (e.g. Google Maps, Whatsapp, Chipotle, you-name-it) be of interest?
sounds like terminal cli vs. gui app.
while typing is inconvenient on phone, worse on "dumb" phone, and not easy to remember the keyword/command syntax...
it is doable, could be fun, but ...
