Obtaining mobile owner informations

Post by johnny_cst » Thu Mar 19, 2015 12:32 pm

Hello everybody.

I have been struggling to find a way in order to obtain, via a script on my card/stack, the following information about the owner of the smartphone where my application is installed.

As an example, I would like to know his mobile number, in order to send him a verification message, or his name in order to greet him when he opens my app.

I believe that the above and additional info are available into his smartphone, but I was unable to find anywhere documentation about that. Nor on google, nor on this forum via the search option, nor on Livecode docs, where there are some specific mobile functions, but none of them seems designed to get the mentioned infos.

Thank you for your time in reading this message.

Giovanni

Usually those apps ask you directly phone number. Some phones have a special Contact entry called "me", but it isn't a standard.
