Android One-Tap SMS Verification With the SMS User Consent API

The SMS User Consent API allows the app to prompt the user to grant access to the content of a single SMS message. When a user gives consent, the app will then have access to the entire message body to automatically complete SMS verification.

Sometimes you don’t have control over the contents of the message for example if your app works with a financial institution that might want to verify the user’s phone number before approving a payment transaction inside your app, then you can use the SMS User Consent API. The API requires the user to approve your app’s request to access the message containing the verification code.
