How to Attach a Contact to a Group Chat in Secure Chat

Introduction:

Secure Chat allows you to share contacts with your group chat members effortlessly. This guide will walk you through the steps to attach a contact to a group chat, ensuring seamless sharing and improved communication among your group members.

Step-by-Step Guide:

Step 1: Access the Group Chat
Start by accessing the group chat to which you want to attach a contact. You can find the group chat in your chat list or by using the search feature.

Step 2: Initiate Contact Sharing
While in the group chat, tap on the attachment icon to open the sharing options. From the sharing options, select the "Contact" option to attach a contact to the group chat.

Step 3: Select a Contact
The system will prompt you to select a contact from your contact list. Browse through your saved contacts and choose the contact you want to share.

Step 4: Confirm Sharing
After selecting the contact, the system will display a confirmation prompt to ensure you want to proceed with the sharing. Review the selected contact and tap on "Confirm" to proceed.

Step 5: Share the Contact
Upon confirmation, the system will share the selected contact's details with the group chat members. The contact information will be sent as a message to the group chat.

Extensions:

Disabling File Sharing
If the user has file sharing disabled in their settings, the system will disable the option to share contacts, and the user cannot receive files or share contacts with the group chat.

Sharing Multiple Contacts
If the user selects multiple contacts to share, the system will prompt the user to confirm the sharing. The contacts will be shared as a single message containing all the selected contacts.

Receiving Contacts from Users Not in Your Contact List
If the group chat member receives the shared contact message and at least one contact is not part of their contact list, they will have the option to "Add contacts." If the user taps on "Add contacts," the system will send contact invites to all contacts not part of their roster.

Receiving Contacts Already in Your Contact List
If all the shared contacts are already part of the group chat member's contact list, they will not see the option to "Add contacts." The received message will be displayed in a regular manner without any additional options.

Congratulations! You have successfully learned how to attach a contact to a group chat in Secure Chat. Utilize this feature to effortlessly share important contact information with your group chat members, making communication more efficient and convenient.
