About the Connectivity and Messaging category

Connectivity and Messaging: Messaging platforms, SMS/MMS services, integrations and bot use.

Scope and posting rules

Messaging platforms, SMS/MMS services, integrations and bot use; coding problems go to Development; carrier problems to Cellular Service.

Use this subject home for questions, troubleshooting, recommendations, discussions, news, reviews and releases. Choose one primary topic-type tag and useful model, platform or product tags. Member-made projects belong in their subject home with a member-made tag.

Keep one primary subject per topic. Support requests need the exact product/model, version, expected behavior, observed problem and attempted fixes. Releases need their version, legitimate source, supported targets and known limitations. A model-family category does not imply firmware compatibility.

Coding or implementation problems belong in Programming and Development; reviewed publications belong in Guides. Carrier/SIM issues belong in Cellular Service. Prefer the dedicated product/device home when that is the main subject.

Examples

  • Google Chat account access.
  • An SMS bot or messaging API integration.
