This would be really nice to have.

It's not very simple as android app are generally sandboxed, and it needs to add a library and silence should notify our app that he receive a message

@nerzhul can't OCSMS hook to the OS and listen for incoming messages, the same way Silence would do?
What would prevent you from reading SMS's directly from Android rather than from the messaging application?

[nerzhul]

It's already the case, but silence add some encryption then SMS are not readable i think

What about Signal? Since Signal is not encrypting the sms/mms (and we Signal users have a web interface via their Chrome app) it would be awesome to pull the sms/mms from Android and relay to the Nextcloud web interface.

@nerzhul Yesterday I mistakenly enabled 'message syncronization' in Android's email application and it could sync SMS while I was using Silence. We may then see how they do it?

PSA: Rather than adding "+1" comments which just clutter up the issue and get in the way of developers trying to sort the issue out, just use the GitHub feature designed to show support for an issue: the reactions button in the top right corner of the original post.

Hi there,

It would be an awesome feature if Silence is supported by sms sync for nextcloud.

How could I contribute to test and make it happen (with my poor dev knowledge) ? Anyway, good luck for them who are working on !
