sms_reader

A Flutter plugin to read SMS messages from Android devices, with detailed fields and runtime permission handling.

Features

• Read messages from **Inbox (Android only)
• Returns a Message class with typed fields:
  • id, address, body, date, threadId, type, read, serviceCenter, subject, locked
• Automatically requests runtime SMS permission
• Easy to use in Flutter apps

Note: iOS does not allow reading SMS, so this plugin works only on Android.

Usage

import 'package:sms_reader/sms_reader.dart';
List<Message> messages = await SmsReader.getInboxSms();

Message Class

class Message {
  final String id;
  final String address;
  final String body;
  final String date; // Timestamp as String
  final int threadId;
  final int type; // 1 = inbox, 2 = sent, etc.
  final bool read;
  final String? serviceCenter;
  final String? subject;
  final bool? locked;
}
