Bug ID: 420060
Summary: OTP notifications in sms should be truncated
Product: kdeconnect
Version: unspecified
Platform: Debian stable
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: common

Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
we often recieve OTP sms which we have to enter on the desktop/other devices.
KDE connect allows sms to display on say phones to desktop perfectly but in
case of OTPs, we still have to select the notification panel, look for the OTP
sms and then either manually type it where ever we want to use it or, copy it
first by right clicking it and then pasting. What i am suggesting is, use
something like
"https://androidwave.com/auto-read-otp-android-user-consent-api/"; and
"https://androidwave.com/automatic-sms-verification-android/"; and
"https://stackoverflow.com/questions/30862162/otp-token-should-be-automatically-read-from-the-message";
not on the phone but on the desktop side.
using this, if KDE connect detects an sms which has an OTP, that sms should get
truncated in the notification and that notification should remain persistent
for a certain time like 30 seconds. what this will do is, instead of having to
open the notification panel and look through where is the 6 digit code or
whatever, that work can be done by the system.
On android, many sms apps do this. They just show the OTP in the sms or in the
notification. I am suggesting the same functionality in the desktop side. It
wouldnt have to affect the phone app as the sms recognition would be done by
the desktop app.
