I have noticed that with some SMS messages they are broken in 2, which is ok, i can figure it out. But for instance the message with the code i need to confirm my identity with a Bank when talking with an agent, the code is at the end of the message and I see only the first number of the code, the other 5 numbers are cut, and not received as a second message.
Any idea how to fix that, if it is possible? Changing POP, or any SMS settings in account, or any other trick?
The same message is sent to my email, and the last digits e.g. after digit 5 below are cut. I can login with same Bank online with no issues, because the SMS they send in that case has a different format and the code is right in the begging of the message
Hi,
SMS messages being broken into parts of about 160 bytes (or 70 unicode characters) is a known issue by Voip.ms. I made a feature request in March 2023 that reads as follow:
SMS messages are limited to 160 standard characters (or 70 unicode character). When writing a message longer than that, the message gets broken into parts of 160 characters, often cutting in the middle of a word. On Android, when such a message is received, the SMS parts are automatically reassembled into a single seamless message. Today, when I receive in the VoIP.ms SMS center, the message is still broken into different SMS parts and those parts are not even shown in logical order and I receive a separate email for each parts, still not in logical order. Please improve the SMS feature by reassembling all parts of a SMS message to make one readable message. Thanks.
I think that if you send them a feature request too, it will upvote it and hopefully prioritize it.
