Luckly Backups Contacts for SMS Consultation

Search trough cloud backup with texts

Lukly from Lukly, Inc., a contact backup solution that allows users the ability to retrieve individual contacts over text message, announced its launch.

It is a contact backup solution that utilizes cloud and text message technologies in order to create a solution that keeps contacts safe, always available and accessible from any phone with text message capabilities.

It was created by NYU Stern alumni Andres Uribe and Nikhil Thomas. Andres noticed that phone backups, although effective in syncing information to a phone, didn’t offer a solution for searching for individual contacts from a backup. In an effort to create a solution that made it easy to search for a contact from a personal backup while using another person’s phone, the service was born.

By utilizing text message technology, it aims to make it as easy as possible to search for a contact saved on a backup without the need to download an app/special service or open a web browser. This is useful for situations where a phone is out of power, damaged, or stolen, and the owner of the phone is forced to use a friend’s phone or borrow a stranger’s phone but hasn’t memorized the phone number that they need to dial.

While pitching the idea for Lukly I had several people patronizingly tell me that I should just charge my phone before I went out of my house and I wouldn’t have this problem,” said Lukly founder Uribe. “Within two months I had received a call from each of these people telling me about how they wish they had Lukly in ‘xyz’ scenario and how they were very eager to become beta testers. Lukly was never intended to be a service that you use every day, but rather something you’ll be really glad you have when it does come time to use it. We hope to make a lot of people really happy knowing that if their phone dies while they’re out of their house they have a dead simple method for retrieving a contact and staying in touch from anyone’s phone.

It is now open for signup to all users, regardless of cell phone make or model. iPhone users are invited to download the Lukly App in the App Store, which will make syncing a phone’s contacts to the account a one touch process.
