How to send text messages from PC using SideSync

Sending text messages to a smartphone from your Windows PC is a lot quicker and easier than doing it from a mobile phone with a small screen and keypad. For this reason, dozens of Windows programs were created: to provide you with a faster alternative to sending text messages to mobile phones. This type of utilities might also come in handy while you're at the office and you're tired of constantly switching from your desktop mouse and keyboard to your device to reply to various text messages.

One example comes from the SideSync tool, a program created by the Samsung company. This mirroring utility is compatible with various smartphone and tablet models from Samsung, provides you with a quick way to transfer data between your media device and your computer, and enables you to complete multiple types of tasks like you would normally do from the gadget in question. But what is the SideSync's strongest point? In my opinion, the answer is its capability to accurately share the screen and data between your PC and mobile device without you dealing with advanced settings configurations.
