Xent Relay Control Settings

Dispatch timing

Randomize the wait between sends Fixed wait (seconds)

Minimum between sends (sec) Maximum between sends (sec) Typing mode Typing delay per character (ms) Pause after typing (ms) Typing timing variation (ms)

Vary character typing time using the delay and variation above Use imported per-lead waits instead of the timer above Smart pacing: prefer longer waits after slow sends, within the maximum above

Smart pacing latency threshold (ms)Maximum extra cooldown (sec)

Typing is paced separately from the between-send timer. The wait starts after web send confirmation. Random waits never exceed the maximum. Fixed mode uses exactly the fixed wait. Imported delays apply only when enabled. Saving restarts an active between-send countdown using the new values; paused countdowns remain saved. These values are your own pacing settings, not a TextNow quota or guarantee.

Reliability

Retry attempts Retry backoff base (sec) Send verification timeout (ms) Composer wait timeout (ms) Recipient wait timeout (ms) Composer focus attempts Per-stage recovery attempts Pause after consecutive failures High failure-rate alert (%)

Open TextNow messaging automatically if no tab is available Append a lead's link when the selected message does not already contain it Link compatibility mode: type URL messages through the paced editor path and wait for TextNow to settle before Send Link editor settle (ms) Allow duplicate rows to be imported as separate queue entries

Safeguards

Daily Xent Relay guardrail Theme Interface motion

Compliance Mode: only auto-process leads marked as consent-confirmed / expecting messages

A value of 0 disables the Xent Relay daily guardrail. This setting does not represent an official TextNow sending allowance.

Owner alerts

Chrome notifications for queue completion and action-required events Optional notification after every verified send (off by default to avoid notification spam) Send HTTPS webhook notifications Webhook URL

TextNow behavior

Xent Relay pauses rather than bypassing CAPTCHA, account limitations, rate/usage warnings, login requirements, or Terms/account notices. TextNow's published support guidance warns against spam/solicitation and says some free service is intended for personal use.
