How do I get notified via text when a user submits a form?

This article is for all of those in our community that have asked for this feature!

Some important notes:
1) Not all mobile phone carriers / networks support email to text.
2) Text messages are not formatted, therefore, the text you receive will not be formatted like an email.
3) Receiving text messages via mobile phone for every user submitted form may be difficult to manage because of the volume of form submissions.

With that said...

To set up text notifications, you have to first know how to set up your admin notifications.  To do that, refer to this nifty article: http://support.emailmeform.com/entries/25435088-Setting-up-form-response-emails-to-admins-Notifications-
