What is it?
The Contact List Validator identifies what type of phone numbers your contacts have. It makes sure your account only send SMS to to the ones capable of receiving SMS. This will save reduce the send error rates to improve your number's reputation and also reduce costs by sending less SMS.
It identifies the numbers into the following categories:
| Landline | Mobile | VoIP | Unknown |
SMS Capable | No | Yes | Maybe | Maybe |
How to use it?
By default, it is ON. To turn it off, simply go to settings --> Account Info and toggle the Contact Number Validator "OFF".
Whenever you add a new contact with a phone number, it will check what type of phone number the contact is and add an icon next to it to symbolize what it is.
Contacts added PRIOR to toggling the Contact Number Validator on will not get this symbol until you edit the number or send them an SMS message.

Please note:
If the symbol is grey, it means that WooSender is unsure if it is capable of SMS. After the first SMS sent, the icon will either turn Red, meaning it is not capable of SMS) or Green (capable of sms)
