I have been using bulk texter lite on Microsoft Edge ever since the chrome extension stopped working in our building (about a year ago). I use it to notify families that their children are absent from school so it is a vital took for my job. It was working fine last week but today, it would show "No Contact Found" and then have the fail popup (see below). I tried to remove and re-add the file. I restarted my computer but no luck. I also tried again on chrome and I had the same issues. I really hope this is resolved.

Having the same issue on chrome.

This is the same issue as #236.

The issue was caused by recent changes that Google released to Google Voice.

I'm focused on fixing this in Bulk Texter Pro first, which is 95% of the way there. Bulk Texter Pro now works as long as you are clicked into the Google Voice tab, but stops working when it's in the background, due to the changes Google made to Google Voice.

Once I have the fix completed for Bulk Texter Pro, I will be porting the fix to Bulk Texter Lite. I anticipate that being done in the next day or two.

The fix is now live in Bulk Texter Lite v3.0.2.

Please note that due to Google's recent changes, Google Voice does not currently support texting while in the background – you'll need to be clicked into the Google Voice tab for it to send.

v3.0.2 is released to the Firefox web store, and is still pending approval in the Edge web store.
