Sign up with phone number on mobile version

by vpapadolias May 21st 2013, 1:54 pm

Hello, i was wondering, is it or will it ever be possible to use phone numbers as part of a user account? Like in Facebook where one can sign in with his phone number and can take notices, etc, via SMS? Is it a feature available or is it in your plans?

Make a poll before they lock your topic.

It's in the suggestions section and currently isn't really possible, so yes I'd imagine it's a suggestion.

I voted, no It doesn't seem a good idea.

Isn't a good idea because if someone know your number ? A problem .. and they need to have all numbers ( for example at me is +07 )

Exactly and I mean the only way you could work it is if once you entered your phone number, you got taken to a page to enter a username like in normal sign up. However you'd need an email address anyway.

Overall this wouldn't work and really isn't needed.

This danger is already there if you are receiving notices via email... so, what's the difference? If Facebook and Twitter have this, there must be a reason....

How does this have anything to do with the topic????

Giving your email to someone you don't know it's already kinda risky now phone numbers? There would be some forumotion users who use this to call people to annoy them. Everyone knows that. I don't believe all admins are trustworthy. . I don't see why they would be useful In any way. If you think of one please tell me. But until then I vote no.

i dont exacrtly see how this is possible. only the zda administrator has access to user login info, how is your phone going to be publicly known? the benefit is obvious, more services to users, for examolple replying to a topic via sms.
