   When I went there, it demanded I pair their web app with the Messages   
   app on my phone.  The web app for Messages doesn't get the texts.  They   
   aren't operating or interfacing with your carrier's SMS server.  So,   
   they link their web app to your Messages phone app to sync copies of the   
   texts from phone app to web app.  Well, that's my interpretation of   
   their process demanded when I first loaded their web app.
