SMS command

[drinsomnia]

My launcher won't read the sms command. My call command seems to work fine as it retrieves my contacts but when it comes to sms, it won't even recognize the command.

mine is working perfectly fine. are you using the command correctly? what I mean is..

sms contact->enter your text message here

it doesn't work in one line like you would expect it to

Sms isn't recognized

Seconding this, downloaded off google play, version 6.15, no sms command.

While I'm pretty new with this launcher, it also looks like there's no sms command here, even though call and other commands are here: https://github.com/fAndreuzzi/TUI-ConsoleLauncher/tree/master/app/src/main/java/ohi/andre/consolelauncher/commands/main/raw

I don't know why this is the case, but it seems the sms command is only accessible from the fdroid install, not the Google play install. You can see the source here which even has fdroid in its path. Maybe google play store has an issue with putting something on it that has this functionality?

Quite some time ago Google essentially issued a cease and desist on SMS access to any app whose main purpose wasn't SMS related. Apps like T-UI, Titanium Backup, KWGT (widgets), Bubble Cloud WearOS launcher/watchface, and so many others, had to remove SMS features or risk being pulled from the Play Store. Some of those can still deal with SMS using addons/plugins now. In the case of T-UI one has to use the F-Droid version.

Not sure why the sms command has not been removed from the Play Store description.

Agreed, and potentially an update to the readme or docs specifically stating the difference between the two versions would be good too, maybe help limit this type of issue being reported in the future.
