Twilio developer evangelist here.

You have a few options:

Firstly, Twilio numbers, particularly US numbers, are available internationally. So you can test this with your local number, wherever you are.

Alternatively, you could buy a US phone and test with that.

Or, with a bit more work, you could buy a second US Twilio number and build a small app for sending and receiving SMS messages with it and use that number to interact with your first Twilio number.

Let me know if this helps at all!

  • You can check whether your message arrived at Twilio in the Monitor in your account dashboard. You should be able to see what's going on from there. – philnash Aug 21 '15 at 15:22
