Most cell providers have an SMS forwarding option. For example, is you mail xxxxxxxxxx@vtext.com (where x is your number) Verizon will forward your email message as text. You can use the ThingSpeak alerts service to generate an email and then set a rule in your inbox to fwd to the sms mail address. Alternatively, you can use a third party service such as Twilio to send a direct SMS message than can be triggered vis a REST API. You can use MATLAB analysis to trigger the REST call to Twillio (using webread or webwrite.) Then you can use the react app to schedule the code to run when the threshold is reached.
Thanks for the valuble information. As i am a begginer i requested you that if possible please provided tutorials or indetail steps to complete the process that you have said previously.
Thankyou
Here's a tutorial on how to send an email. You can google your cell provider to find the forwarding address.
