MMS-Monitor: Help for carriers with dual APNs? - treebeard - 02-10-2023

MMS-Monitor is something I developed to help deal with Verizon's use of 2 APNs and our software's current inability to deal with that. It allows you to have your phone configured for internet use by default but get a notification when a MMS message is pending.   It is not carrier-specific.  It was targeted at mobian but may work on any platform using mmsd-tng and can probably be adapted for others.

The latest version can be dowloaded as a zip file. This is my first Gitlab project and my first time publishing code like this so I hope I've done everything right.

Constructive feedback will be appreciated!

Hah, nice Smile
You can automate the switching if you want (I did find this same solution some time ago but I did only ugly bash scripts)

That's a lot more elaborate that what you had posted before!  I'll spend some time studying it.

I thought about automatically switching the connection but I couldn't be sure of not interrupting something.
