Technology Update

AT&T today announced NumberSync, a service that aims to link all of your connected devices to the same phone number. This means that if you conduct a call or send a text from your connected device — like a smartwatch or tablet — it’ll appear to the recipient from the same number as your regular phone number. NumberSync is a network-based service, and so it doesn’t require your connected devices to be paired with your phone to work. Your phone can even be turned off.
