Most mobile phones allow entering the telephone numbers together with the country code, e.g. 0049 69 12345678 (In this example, "0049" is the country code for Germany). This approach is useful when going abroad because one may phone home without changing the telephone number by adding the country code.
However, there are some few countries which require country codes which do NOT start with "00" but with another string.
There is a useful convention to accommodate these differences in "spelling" the country code: The country code starts with "+" followed by a non-zero digit, e.g. Instead of "0049" you may specify "+49", or "+7" for Russia.
Unfortunately Airdroid does not allow for entering "+49" in the web browser, it immediately discards the "+"; instead you must enter "0049".
Interestingly Airdroid preserves an existing "+49..." telephone number if the phone number is not changed but some other fields when editing a contact.
It would be great if you allow for entering the country code with a "+" in Airdroid.
Thanks a lot in advance.
