The Mobile Secretary: Source Code

  • Article

Last week I posted an application called The Mobile Secretary.  A little application that auto-responds to missed calls as well as a few other options.  Thank you for all of the feedback!  I'll be looking to add some of the requested features in the next revision.  Itching for the feature requests??  Why wait for me to do it?  I have posted the source code for you to look at and play with. 

You can also grab the latest cab (currently the same as I last posted) at https://www.wimobot.com/wmapps/mobilesecretary. Yes, as you can see I am sharing my wimobot server... feel free to check out that project too if you are interested in the Windows Mobile Robot :) 

I hope that the source code will help to demonstrate some of the really cool APIs we have available in Windows Mobile.  If you have any questions about the source, please don't hesitate to ask.  And as always, any feedback on the application is always welcome!

-- Brian

    thanks like the app.  one question would be how could this app be configured to stop sms messages being sent to landlines/non mobile phones?

    The only time it might send an sms to a landline is if a call is detected that is NOT in your contact database and you have the <Unknown> group enabled.  This is because the app has no way of knowing if it landline or not, so it errors on the side of sending the SMS.   If a phone number that is in your contacts is detected, the app looks up the contact and then specifically asks for the mobile phone number... if no mobile phone number, then it shouldn't send an sms.

    Hi! Iam swathi   I have an idea regarding features of the mibile. That is, consider a user in a situation that he is not able to lift a call on his mobile, say he is in a seriou meeting, sleeping after a heavy work, helping a person met with an aciident or many..... Now the user must be fecilitated with a feature that he feed a textual message or voice in his mobile and go on with his work. Now if he have a call the network must send that data to the caller. How does this is useful?   It is much useful for the caller which depress his/her tention that his/her related person(user) is met with a bad accident or some one kidnpped him/her ............ so, I think this idea will be appreciable when the person is in bad state of lifting the phone. If u think that this idea if this idea is helpfull to u, then mail me to swathi_muthya@yahoo.com Plz excuse me if u find any spelling misteks in this mail
