[messaging-app] No way to tell which number is used from a contact with more than one number

[Julien Funk]

1. Put two numbers into 1 contact
2. Receive a text from the contact
3. Note that it is impossible to tell which number has sent the message

EXPECTED RESULT: I should be able to tell which number is contacting me when a contact has multiple numbers associated to it

we talked with design about having an "info" action on each message that would display the phone number and additional delivery status information when available.

this is also an issue on the main conversations view. We need some indication (how about a phone number label?) of which contact phone number the conversation is from.

The latest communication hubs spec provides a solution for the described issue:
User can tug towards the left on any message bubble to reveal additional options. One of the options is a INFO icon which will contain a delivery report for the sent text/mms.

[Bill Filler (bfiller)]

the info icon and are implemented now. but we still need a way on the main Chat view to differentiate otherwise you need to open the conversation and tug on a message to see which phone number is being used.

How about a label next to the name displaying the phone number or phone number label if the contact has multiple numbers associated with it?

[Olga Kemmet (olga-kemmet)]

Displaying the phone number label as "private" or "work" is a good solution for now.
