> I'm about to upload a version of KDE Connect to the Play Store with the SMS functionality removed.
Google removes app from the app store until you upload new version.
Not sure if you know, but for KDE Connect SMS access is part of core functionality, allowed use of the API, and author wanted to call explain it as written in [0] but there is nowhere to call.
It's all in a thread.
According to https://support.google.com/googleplay/android-developer/answ... an allowed use of the API is "connected device companion apps that enable sending and receiving of SMS or calls".
Did KDE Connect allow sending and receiving SMS from your PC? The only thing I see in the app description is getting "notifications for incoming calls and SMS messages", which might have been insufficient.
This was actually one of the more recent features they were working on, afaik, yes.
2) They are, hence the removal of functionality and re-upload
