Hi,
I would like to add two items to the list:
5) If you use Qt.openUrlExternally("sms:" + smsNumber + "?body=" +
smsText); in your app you will not be returned back to the app but you will
have to close the sms sending UI (at least when cancelling) and this may
result in some kind of stack error (?) in some cases (black screen,
reboot). I think a fix is needed. - The same method for tel: works great!
6) Regarding item 5), there is no display of the recipient (number/contact)
of the SMS when you are supposed to finally send the text. Risky?
regards,
Seppo
