AwSMS [BETA]

First off, the notification/heads up needs a drop shadow, otherwise it's just too flat and can blend into the app behind it very easily. Next, it needs an option to have the send button match the avatar colour/conversation colour to help blend in. Finally, the text input section needs an option for just a line instead of a shadow separating it between the conversation and itself. On top of that, sending multiple images over MMS doesn't work at all, and sending one after another doesn't work either.

I've tried many sms apps and this one is easily in my top 3. A few features that would bring this to 5 stars: 1 - pw/pattern protected private inbox - what's the point of a private inbox if anyone with your phone can easily access it? 2 - sending delay/unsend in case you want the option of cancelling a message at the last minute. Are there any plans to add any of these features in the future?

The idea is awesome. An amazingly customizable SMS app with a really cool quick reply feature, however the transitions could be a little smoother and id like to see padding control for the quick reply. Also the heads up needs a shadow or else it can be difficult to see over your other apps. I'd also love some new bubble styles. Also please give the ability to make the notification a different color than the app theme.

Something I'd appreciate greatly is the ability to change the main background, rather than just having three options. I'd like to change it to a hex to match everything else to something like #1c1c1c which I use to theme everything mostly for the backgrounds. Another thing I'd like is the feature to schedule messages to set times. Maybe even some emoji styles would be great also (Twitter, IOS, etc.) Other than that I think this application is comfy/10.

I adore the customization features. Paying for premium is totally worth it, as there are TONS of things you can customize. My only complaint is that it still doesn't do that will with sending pictures or gifs. A lot of times people don't actually get them, or if I send gifs they won't be animated. It takes forever for the picture to compress, and I can't have text along with the picture or it will not send. That's the only reason it's not 5 star. But other than that this is the best messaging app ever.

This app is good but there are some issues plz fix it 1. when some messages are come together and quick,reply to anyone the app is unfortunately stopped 2.and some contact names who start with dots or symbols and select contact for message the app is unfortunately stopped 3. select contact for new msg it has been to confirming for select contact Thank You ☺

Share dialogue to send content to the app is a bit buggy for me, UI elements are a bit jumbled when switching frim recent contacts to favorites. Search by number does not work when picking a contact to receive shared content.

One of the best SMS apps I've tried. If it gets the ability to show toasts and vibrate when a message is delivered, vibrate when a message is received during a call and play notification sounds when a message is received during a call then I'm making this my daily SMS app. Please add these features. Edit: Is AwSMS abandoned?

Wow! So much customization, just how I like it. everything is working well so far. One thing is suggest is to make the dividers a grey colour. I'm using the amoled theme and the white divider just doesn't look right. Also

Found a bug, if you delete a conversation, but the people in that conversation still reply to it you don't get notified! For some reason I wanted to check something and went back to my stick messaging app I missed 2 text messages and 2 that had multiple recipients still in the conversation that had over 70 replies "/, don't know if anyone else noticed this. switching back to stock messaging app until I know it's fixed.

I'm loving how you are pretty much can customize every bit of element in the app. However, my only gripe for now is the name of the app, it feels lazily thought out. I hope you change it? I don't know if that's possible but yeah.

I've been looking for a new sms app and this one's I will be using for a while if the improvements keep coming. First thing is that It would be nice if we could put a background for our conversations. Second it would be nice if the video attachment option would work as well as the emoji one. Also if the delay when sending could be optional that'd be great, it just annoys me a little bit not having it show up right away. Thanks!

I think it's my goto sms app now!!! I had to reduce my rating since I'm having issues with MMS. I cannot send/receive them. Also we need a separate "theme backup" option since saving the settings doesn't help trying to restore the app to default without messing with the theme.

Great app will receive 5stars onces the send using enter key is fix for the BlackBerry priv physical keyboard I know it's beta but no place to report bug. Update still no good for BlackBerry keyboard

Need a way to secure private box, with either a pin or pattern, after the long press option. Maybe a fake notification option. Just a few suggestions. This is a good replacement for stock. I bought the pro version.

Literally so many customization options! Best SMS app out there! Only a few things I would like to see added. It needs an emoji add on first and foremost. Twitter and iOS styles possibly? Also an option to change the color of the notification icon. And also some more bubble style options. Maybe some round ones without the tails? Add these things and I will definitely rate 5 stars!

Been testing lots of stock sms replacement apps and this one is the one I always ended up choosing. Why? Because with its padding features it's perfect for all sorts of screen (wide or narrow), customization features never lack, compatibility with different launchers so far none, and file size is great. I really would like to ask you guys to upvote this app by trying this and making a great review for this. To the developers, please add a feature where we can change the avatar shape (round,circle,square).TY

It would b the mest messaging app ever if you fix the following things. 1: No default sms app setting availabe. 2: No 2 sim supportive. 3: Operator messages does not show their name (only shows "#" in avatar). P.S testing in progress.

Absolutely loved it! For some reason over the last few days, it has suddenly started crashing every time I try to open a received message or conversation!! Please fix!

Beautiful SMS app, but recently it has given me the "not responding" message every time I open it and will stop for a small amount of time if i reinstall it.

The biggest and most annoying bugs I have come across are when I'm in a thread with a person I'm texting and I still receive the drop down quick reply from the person who I'm in the same thread with. Another bug is the notification in the status bar won't always automatically clear once I go I to the the thread with that person who sent the text. And furthermore when in the thread with a person and I receive a text it won't always update it at the bottom of the thread even though I receive the quick reply

Great replacement for the standard messaging app. If you're on an older device, being able to message without leaving your screen is very helpful. Unfortunately, this feature doesn't always work, and doesn't work at all if you have any other notifications. Bigger issues are that I cannot receive or send pictures whatsoever. If I send a picture, the app simply crashes. For receiving, I am never even notified of an attempt of a picture to my phone. If these issues were solved, I would certainly give 5 stars.

Its been in beta for a long time. In fact the last it was updated was June. I'm hoping you guys are still developing this app and bringing new features and bring it out of beta some day.

Dev, Please Add the Option to set "Opening Conversation Delay" to disabled. The animation is killing me. aside from that It's Perfect for my needs.

Have a few bugs but overall a great start. The reply option doesn't work..then it takes me to the app and freezes up. Only bug I found so far. - dropped it a few stars as nothing is being updated.

It is a great messaging app with tons and tons of customisations but it needs to be smooth. The message sending animations lag and some other animations too. I hope the devs fix this issue

It's a great app. It looks great and functions well. My only complaint is that it tends to use a lot of battery, but that's the only problem I've found

Excellent SMS app loads to customise and my MMS works now first app to achieve this :) and you can customise everything and I've bought em all but keep using this as my daily SMS driver just wish there was rounded bubbles with no tails

I really like this app, but I'm concerned that the last update was in June, as there are some bugs, nothing critical but annoying all the same. The interface is clean, the customization menus are pretty simple and overall, its really a great app, hoping for updates soon...

I love this sms app. It's so smooth and great to customized. I wouldn't recommend any other text/sms for any other phone. Thank you

Everytime I get a message, I get 2 notifications. When I reply in any way, it only dismisses 1 of the 2 notifications so there's always one sitting in my drawer unless I manually dismiss it

Of the many messaging apps I've used this is the only one I kept for more than a few weeks. Few bugs and heads up reply works really nicely

Just one issue is that whenever I receive a text, I get 2 notifications for it. Why is that & how do I turn it off? I just want 1 notification.

Great app, I use it as my default app for messaging. However, it's starting to force close and I am unable to use it right now, once that is fixed I will continue to use it.

Works great and looks even better! Would like the text bubble to grow when the text gets too big (similar to Google Messenger) so that I can scroll through and proofread my text before sending!

Seems this "Beta" hasn't been updated in months.. devs abandoned ship

This app is gonna be great, have some suggestion, add iOS type emojis support and schedule message support.... (Add Textra SMS all features in your app).. Fix MMS too, it's buggy .... Add Dual Sim support too...

The app works very well overall. While it does need some polishing with MMS functionality, it makes up for these occasional hiccups in functionality and customization.

The best texting app on the store. Lacks dual sim support but not such a big deal.

It's a five star worth application, with every feature working fairly bug free. The only bug I have found was long textes wouldn't send. Except this, I really like all the customization options. Keep up the great work, dev. (:
