Photos customers text you, filed automatically

Every image texted to your number is collected into a Photos section on the contact record with a swipeable gallery.

What it is

Images arriving by MMS are recognised, deduplicated and gathered into a Photos block in the contact's detail panel, newest first, alongside the thread where they also appear inline. A gallery view swipes through all of a contact's photos. Dead assets (the upstream URL has expired) drop out rather than sitting there as broken tiles.

The Photos section in the contact detail rail — a grid of texted images with the count and 'From texts' caption. ContactsView.tsx. Sample data — no customer information appears here.
How it works
  1. 1Attachments are classified as images by the authenticated MMS proxy path or by file extension
  2. 2Duplicates are collapsed by URL
  3. 3A failed image load marks that URL dead and removes it from the section and the gallery
  4. 4Clicking opens a lightbox; the Photos section opens the full gallery
Why we built it

Once a customer relationship has a few weeks of messages in it, finding the photo they texted of the site access or the damaged panel means scrolling past everything else to get to it. Every image texted to the builder's number is now filed into a Photos section on the contact with a swipeable gallery. An image whose file is no longer retrievable drops out of the gallery rather than sitting there as a broken tile.

The problem
  • Photos buried in a long message history
  • Expired media leaving permanent broken tiles
