A recent update seems to have broken mms. Notification appears but message does not. Also, dedicated viewer often is blank. Moto x 2013. Otherwise love the simple but enhanced design, custom colors, round avatars, pop up, etc. Hard to find a replacement... Will try again after next update.

BUYER BEWARE!! they will take your money, and you will recieve no support when you have issues . "keep getting a message not sent prompt. .over, and over. .it is driving me crazy. .please supply a solution."

Best messaging app Ive ever tried... but please add the option to block.

H70%
by H####:

My only gripe is that there's a small bug where sometimes an empty message thread suddenly appears. This usually happens when you open their contact card, whether in the contacts app or inside another app.

I bought this when textra didn't implement material well. I love that you allow us to define whether to use a transparent notification area or not! Maybe an option for notification icon and avatar at heading of conversation instead of within the thread. Thank you for the elegant app! I also love the way quick replies from notifications is done. Keep it tight!

Y70%
by Y####:

Overall a very good app. Nice UI and easy navigation. What would make the app 5 stars is to have the option to have the notification light go on with a text and the screen to light up. As well to have an emoji button on the pop up. If that can happen, I'll be in love!

Really??? No ability to change and it's so tiny. I bought the app and SERIOUSLY wish I had not. You see, it's a basic option and those that don't include our don't care! Does smitten care... If they do they will get an update in yesterday please!

Q70%
by Q####:

I get a "unfortunately messaging has stopped" error when I send mms. But the mms does send. Only happens if I leave app before mms finishes sending. So shrug. I'd sure like to change the notification icon to something less silly. Hide message content in notification is awesome, thank you. EDIT: I get close errors randomly through the day whether in all or not whether sending/receiving or not. OnePlus One unrooted stock

by Q####:

MMS seems to be broken, though. App crashes every time I try to open an MMS. EDIT: I'd love to keep using it, but the MMS issue is a big deal breaker. Uninstalled. Once it's fixed, I'll resume using it.

I really liked the old app for this one. I really hate the smiley icons they suck and I have my own already hooked to my keyboard. Other than that it's okay.

You should be able to change the font size. The conversation list gets a little crowded and it gets hard to read the small letters.

Very similar to Google's Hangouts, but more customizable. Well worth the money!

I can't use the app as my daily driver, I've noticed how the app abnormly drains the battery in the foreground. I've used other text messaging apps and they do not drain in the foreground like this app. I really want to use the app since I paid for it.
