    Apps Team - Status July 3, 2014


Summary:

Working on feature freeze goals


Telephony/Messaging:

  *

    Landed support for emergency calling in the dialer app. Once the
    unity lockscreen lands you'll be able to make calls to emergency
    numbers without unlocking your phone.

  *

    Landed support for live call indicator (pending unity release that
    contains the UI piece)

  *

    Landed support for sending pictures and vcards as MMS attachments.
    UI all in place, waiting on backend support to be complete in nuntium.

  *

    Messaging app integrated with content-hub, such that apps can share
    via messaging. Hooked up to gallery, camera and address book currently

  *

    Landed frequently called category within favorites per design

    Work in progress on swipe actions per design

  *

    Landing support for sharing contacts via messaging-app (in silo)

    can register and interact as sharing destinations.
