user tried to message person, but it failed #120

The person had a number, but it was not a textable number so sending the message failed. The user would prefer sending an email. Should this be a setting? Is there more intelligence we can apply or a way we can let the user choose the method of contact?

I noticed that when I went to text somebody today that I got an alert with all the choices of numbers that I could use and had to select the right one. Could we do something like that?

chrislim commented 9 years ago

We could gather all the information and present it to the user in a table and let them pick.

Did you actually mean to close the issue?

LIL717 commented 9 years ago

no

As you mentioned the Contacts app has a nifty menu in the Send Message when a contact has multiple ways to be reached. However I scoured the internet and could not find a way to get that natively. The alternative is to construct such a menu ourselves, which is probably the right thing to do, but could take a little while.

For now I'm going to say we won't fix it for this release.
