Jon, this is a nice-to-have for Nov 10, not a blocker.

Adding the link isn't a problem, but localization could be. Maybe We could go en-US only at first behind an L10n tag?

Adding flod & pascalc to the bug for comment.

Actually...

Winston do we need to add geolocation to this request due to the data charges?  

Also, is en-US only ok?

Comment 4

[Winston Bowden]

Hey there - this should only be shown to users in the U.S.  The SMS service won't work for non-US users.  If the pilot succeeds, we will roll this out to additional markets.

jpetto - how much scope does that add? :)

Comment 6

[Jonathan Petto [:jpetto]]

None! I can just wrap the link in a conditional checking for the en-US locale. Now we don't have to additionally burden the localizes. It's win-win.

Is there any reason this shouldn't go out with the Android push on 10/29?

No reason at all!  If we could get this in for 10/29, that would be beyond fabulous.  Thanks!

I think the majority of en-US users are outside of the US, so filtering by locale is a good first step but I think you will need geolocation too.

Based on comment 9, should geolocation be a blocker here?

Yes please.

Ok. I don't think it will be too hard to add geolocation. Will update the PR.
