[Feature] Separate inboxes for dual-sim phones #735

Closed Cwpute closed 12 months ago

Cwpute commented 12 months ago

Problem encountered: I use two sim cards on my android, and often find myself scrolling past personnal conversations (sent and received from SIM1) to find work conversations (sent and received from SIM2). I also find myself repetedly stumbling when i send an sms to a new contact, wondering if i'm using the appropriate sim or not.

Feature that would solve the problem: I'd like Simple SMS to separate the conversations of my two sim cards into two separate tabs, so it would be more clear. The + button to create new messages in the bottom right would then select the automatically select the correct sim to send messages with. Additionally, the tab windows could features a coloured dot that represent the colour selected for the sim in the Android preferences menu. Here is a mockup i made:test sim 1 and 2

To further backup this idea, i'd like to mention that the iPhones have included similar features regarding dual-phones since last year with iOS 16, and recently updated said changes with iOS17.

Through this issue, i'm quietly asking you to consider adding this feature to the roadmap. Is that not possible ?
