Free internet using SMART

Smart Communications is now introducing SmartNet Application that allows users to access their facebook and twitter account for FREE. Yes it's all free.

This application currently supports SMART subscribers only. Non-SMART subscribers may visit www.smartnet.ph on the web or m.smartnet.ph for mobile.

To begin with, first you must have SmartNet Application on your phone.
I suggest that you use the WiFi connection to download this app easily.

Once you open this app for the first time,
you will see that the Chat, Social, Alerts, Services and Settings are in colored gray and there's nothing happens when you tap it. This means that all those items are not yet available.

For those items to work, you need to Sign in first.
Probably, this will be your first sign-in so you need to register.

You must be a SMART subscriber for you to receive the verification SMS that they will send on your SMART SIM to be able to use this service.


Once you logged into your account,
Chat, Social, Alerts, Services and Settings
will now look like this on the picture.

Take a look at the top most bar, the WiFi icon is now replaced by this EDGE icon
I turned off my WiFi connection and I am now using the SMART data network connection (EDGE) so I can demonstrate to you that this app will give you the privilege to access your facebook, twitter and yahoo account for FREE.
