No Permission to send SMS, smsSend()

It's working with the alpha 4 (and number as string). Thanks!

Well, it works!
Really appreciate your work. Thank you.

Hello @Nic7C5

Google Play does not allow anymore apps that access the SMS, so for that reason I created a separated extended APK that you have to download from here https://github.com/victordiaz/PHONK/releases/tag/1.2.5

Can you try to install that version and let me know if it works? (you have to uninstall the previous version)

[Nic7C5]

I just updated my first post. At first I used version 1.2.5 from the Playstore. Now I installed the 1.2.5 extended apk from here. The error is still the same.

Ok I see, I'll have a look later with more detail and see what's going on :)
Thanks for reporting

Hello @Nic7C5

Could you check to install phonk-1.2.6-alpha-4-extended-release.apk from https://github.com/victordiaz/PHONK/releases/tag/1.2.6-alpha and tell me if it works for you?

Thanks

@Nic7C5
One thing I saw in your first comment the method device.smsSend(012345 , 'test') should be instead device. smsSend('012345', 'test')
The number is a string since you can write Phone numbers with the + prefix

[victordiaz]

I will keep the issue open until the next release. Thanks for testing it :)

[victordiaz]

The new version is online with the changes.
Feel free to close the issue if everything works fine for you :)

When can we expect this version to be published into Google Play Store?

[victordiaz]

Hi @adasq
Google Play is nowadays very strict with some features like sending SMS, so if you are not a big company or your SMS sending is justified somehow they don't allow it.
For that reason there is an Extended version https://github.com/victordiaz/PHONK/releases here that you can download and install in your phone or tablet that has SMS functionality.

I hope it works for you! Let me know if it does not.

Hey @victordiaz,

Thanks for the response. I tried the released APK, but unfortunately, it crashes after downloading examples.

@adasq try to uninstall all the PHONK versions in your phone and then reinstall the extended version. Let me know if that works!
