Send SMS to multiple phone #'s using Twilio

I've successfully configured the Alarm Decoder Web App to send SMS text messages to my cell phone and wondered if there was anyway to have these text messages sent to an additional cell phone? That way both me and my wife can get the same text message. The settings in the Web App only appears to access one phone number.

Set up a 2nd notification with the same parameters with a different phone number and you will get both :)

Notifications are per-user, so if you want your wife to have her own notifications under her own user, just set one up as her user - or you can manage them all as admin.

Yep, you can set up as many notifications you would like and get really granular. Zone 8 faulted? Let's send that over to some API to do xyz...

Also, if you update your ARM message in your notifications to have {arm_type} in it, in the newest version of the library and webapp it will differentiate what arm state instead of just telling you it was armed.
