Hi,

I've created a SMS popup with an option to reply to the sender -
working great.

The only problem I encountered is %SMSRF shows me the sender phone
number and not the contact name.
Is it supposed to do so? Is there a different variable to show sender
contact name?

If not, I think I know what the problem is but can't fix it.
When I receive a SMS sometimes the number appears with the country
code (+972 for Israel for example).
Android and some apps I've tried can handle this and they still
recognize the number as a specific contact.
Maybe Tasker can't (yet)?

Thanks,
Lior

I've added contact selection by name for next time, I'll include a
variable for
the contact name too.
