Hey @michaelkourlas I'm assuming this is related to the recentsms_too_long
errors?
Is it an issue with their (VoIP.ms's) end? Should we bug them incessantly for updates? :laughing:
This is a VoIP.ms bug.
The VoIP.ms API is treating the characters '
and "
(at least -- there might be others) as taking two characters instead of one.
To reproduce, send the following message via the API, and them via http://sms.voip.ms. It will fail in the former case and succeed in the latter case.
This is a test SMS message that uses the ' character and which is exactly 160 characters long. aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
I've opened a ticket with them. Others might want to do so as well.
Will do, thanks for the explanation!
The latest from VoIP.ms:
Hello Michael,
This is still being looked into.
We apologize for the delay.
Regards.

Until the bug is fixed upstream, does it make sense for this app to also count '
and "
incorrectly?
I'm hoping they'll fix it first. I'd rather not implement the workaround and then have to remove it later.
Looks like they fixed this.
Just experienced it... I use french. Maybe a 'special' characters issue.
