[Bug 1474962] Re: Amount of SMS's used to send a message is not shown

 

The "253" in the mockup would be the number of characters the user
typed. The "306" would be the character limit for the amount of SMS's
already started (which is 160 for 1 message in the GSM 7-bit alphabet,
and 153 per message in Concatenated SMS using the GSM 7-bit alphabet).

** Attachment added: "Mockup for indicator of amount of SMS's"

Title:
  Amount of SMS's used to send a message is not shown

Status in messaging-app package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  For people who don't have an unlimited amount of SMS's or who pay per
  SMS, it is useful to know if they are about to send a message that
  needs more than one SMS, using Concatenated SMS.

  I would propose to show this information above the Send button, as in the attached mockup.
  As in the mockup, an info button could be provided. It would open an information screen informing the user that the message has to be sent using multiple SMS's, and that they probably will be charged multiple messages by the provider.
