SMS format differs when launched using SMS launcher on android 9 and 10 #73717

cntoss · 2021-01-11T18:15:33Z

While sending sms from url_launcher package. SMS output is not symmetric on android 10 and 9 below is my code

Result in android 9: Message: Hello Developer Welcome

Result in android 10: Message: Hello+Developer+Welcome

void sendSMS() async {
  String message = 'Hello+Developer+Welcome';
  String scheme = 'sms:7005?body=${Uri.encodeFull('Message: $message')}';
  if (await canLaunch(scheme)) {
    await launch(scheme);
  } else {
    print('problem on launcher');
  }
 }

Alternatively
If I replaced '+' symbol by '%2B' then result was changed
Result in android 9: Message: Hello+Developer+Welcome

Result in android 10: Message: Hello Developer Welcome

Below is code

    void sendSMS() async {
    String message = 'Hello+Developer+Welcome';
    String mesWithoutPlus = message.replaceAll('+', '\%2B');
    String scheme =
        'sms:7005?body=${Uri.encodeFull('Message: $mesWithoutPlus')}';
    if (await canLaunch(scheme)) {
      await launch(scheme);
    } else {
      print('problem on launcher');
    }
  }

Temporary fixed:

    var androidInfo = await DeviceInfoPlugin().androidInfo;
    var release = androidInfo.version.release;
    if (release != '10') {
      scheme= scheme.replaceAll('+', '\%2B');
    }

stuartmorgan · 2021-04-08T18:22:44Z

See dart-lang/sdk#43838 for more discussion. We need to update the docs to flag this since it's happening for several common schemes on recent versions of Android.

d9media · 2021-04-13T14:33:14Z

Temporary fixed:

    var androidInfo = await DeviceInfoPlugin().androidInfo;
    var release = androidInfo.version.release;
    if (release != '10') {
      scheme= scheme.replaceAll('+', '\%2B');
    }

This didn't work for us in IOS.

Here's what did:


final String _emailUriString = _emailLaunchUri
                                .toString()
                                .replaceAll('+', '\%20');

%2B is enconding + not space according to RFC 3986.

EDIT: This worked in Android as well (Gmail).

stuartmorgan · 2021-04-20T19:26:14Z

For SMS, for now the safest and simplest approach would be encodeComponent. E.g.,:

String message = 'Your SMS message body here';
String urlString = 'sms:7005?body=${Uri.encodeComponent(message)}';

(encodeFull is not intended for individual components, so the original code in this issue wasn't correct.)

stuartmorgan · 2021-04-20T19:47:42Z

In general (e.g. for mailto) see dart-lang/sdk#43838 (comment) for a safer workaround for now than a replaceAll; the url_launcher README will be updated accordingly, likely with a utility method for this added to the API surface.

`Uri`'s constructor doesn't handle query parameters correctly for non-http(s) schemes, so the `mailto` example in the README is misleading. This adds a new utility method to do query string construction correctly, and updates the README to show using it and warning about the need to use it in general. If/when `Uri` is fixed to handle generic URI query parameters correctly, this utility method can be deprecated. Fixes flutter/flutter#75552 Fixes flutter/flutter#73717
