- eythian 5y agoThanks, I'll remember that. It's an awkward workaround compared to pasting their number from an email into the app, but it'll have to do I guess. Here it's pretty common for people to, for example, put a notice up in my apartment foyer "does anyone have xyz that I can borrow, please app me at +123456789" and having to create a contact is an annoying bit of overhead.
