:question: Issue response
Team chose [response.Rejected]
- [ ] I disagree
Reason for disagreement: [replace this with your explanation]
Although the UG mentions that phone numbers can only be 8 digits long and must start with 6, 8 or 9, this will likely hinder the user when sourcing for contractors, especially when the user works in the F&B industry.
Singapore does not produce a lot of food locally. For example, someone from the F&B industry might have trouble sourcing for caviar locally and may turn to overseas businesses to do so. Unfortunately, the restrictions on phone numbers in the app will disallow the user from adding that contact's phone number.
This would make the app less useful for F&B operators. However, the notes feature can be the (slight inconvenient) workaround for this problem.
