Hi Twilio Evangelist here.

So, it sounds like you're trying to build a Two Factor Authentication system? There is an example of how to do this with PHP on the Twilio site.

You will need a server application as well as the mobile application. When the user submits a form, this will be sent to your server. Then, you can use the Twilio REST API to send the user an SMS - there are a lot of helper libraries you can use too, if you're using Android you may want to use the Java helper library.

You need to buy a telephone number from Twilio to send the message with, these are form $1/month and available in over 40 countries. You can sign up for free to get started.

Hope this helps!
