|
|
I have multiple Magic Jack accounts where I have given phones to friends and family. I downloaded the Android app which seemed to work fine until I made a shocking discovery. The application loaded the contacts list from every Magic Jack number on the account into the Magic Jack contact list on the Android. Now everyone that has a phone on that account has access to everyone's contact list? Is it just me or does anyone else think this is a serious problem both security and otherwise?
I contacted them via their chat connection. Weak response that they are looking into it. No further feedback from them. |

Seems like an easy solution - let your friends and family register new accounts for themselves, or at least take the time to set it up for them. |

Perhaps an alternative method might be to use the android contacts exclusively on the android app and delete all contacts in the magicJack website interface. |
