This type of Widget allows you to get new SMS leads. You can install SMS Modal Widget on the site and collect phone numbers.
How it works: the user sees a widget. After that, the user selects a country, enters a phone number, and presses a button to subscribe. After the phone number has been entered, you will see this contact in the Contacts tab. Widget is only going to appear after you activate your SMS channel. More on that can be found here.

SMS Modal appearance on iOS
Please note that on iOS the SMS modal does look and work a bit different from the desktop variant:
It doesn't have a field to input a phone, instead, upon clicking on the 'Subscribe' button, it opens Messages on your iOS device with a pre-filled 'Subscribe' message to the phone number of your Bot:
In order to get subscribed, you now need to send the message, and that's it!
Widget's Default Country
Right now, the SMS Modal widget works with all countries, but you may notice that the modal defaults to a certain country with the corresponding country code when you open it in your browser. That is because the country code is based on the browser's locale. The aforementioned locale can be found by opening the browser's console and entering "window.navigator.language" without brackets. This would show the locale and also what country the SMS widget would default itself to.
