Hello @goderbauer, do you still want to maintain this plugin?

I am asking this because I see that you haven't been replying to issues nor commenting on PRs opened in this repo since may 2018.

In such situations, I would usually create a plugin myself with a variation of the name and include upgrades / bug fixes, but I realize that others have already done this:

  • https://pub.dev/packages/native_contact_picker
  • https://pub.dev/packages/easy_contact_picker
  • https://pub.dev/packages/native_contact_dialog

So I would rather avoid squatting the "yet_another_contact_picker" package name, which would add even more confusion to that which one has to go through for such a simple functionality.

I would more specifically be interested in upgrading it to the latest Android embedding v2, but I guess there are other improvements that this plugin could benefit from.

Any reply would be appreciated :) thanks

The new package does not seem to be very maintained as well

I would also be interested in a new package. Everything I find doesn't work on Android, but works fine on iOS :/

I made one myself you can find it at https://github.com/DRSchlaubi/contact_picker

Thank you for your response! It allows you to retrieve email, phone etc?

jerem17 avatar Apr 01 '20 12:04 jerem17

currently it allows you to retrieve a phone number or an email I'll probably add support for the whole contact at some point

DRSchlaubi avatar Apr 01 '20 12:04 DRSchlaubi

Oh, right, I thought phone and email were bundled together. Thanks for your help, it's already that ;)

@DRSchlaubi @jerem17 you may want to move that discussion to another thread. This issue was opened as a reference for everyone considering using this plugin to understand what @goderbauer 's position is regarding its maintenance.

You might want to create this issue on the repo of the repo actually causing the issue

@Jayvd could you please delete your comment, which is unrelated to this issue?

@Jayvd did you find any solution?
