Smartphone users of VivaCell-MTS to be able to get SMS in Armenian letters

Owing to the innovation introduced by VivaCell-MTS, subscribers using smartphones will be able to receive SMS notification messages sent by the Company in Armenian characters.

Likewise, subscribers that used to receive a transliterated version of notification messages in Russian from now on will receive them in Cyrillic (Russian) characters.

Smartphone users will continue receiving SMS notification messages in the language, which was initially configured upon their choice.

The innovation, which is currently in the pilot stage, is not of a commercial nature.

“This initiative of sending messages in Armenian or Russian characters aims at empowering smartphone users to enjoy the benefits of receiving communication in the preferred language. We believe that the needs of the subscriber should be met and not be constrained by technology,” VivaCell-MTS General Manager Ralph Yirikian said.

VivaCell-MTS has introduced one more innovation. VivaCell-MTS subscribers, who choose to settle invoice and refill prepaid account at the Company’s service centers will receive SMS notifications about transaction details on their mobile phones.

As in the case of other SMS notification messages sent by the Company, subscribers using smartphones will receive SMS notifications about the transaction details in Armenian, English or Russian characters, depending on the initial configuration, which can be changed on demand.
