  • Any Better suggestions for an sms messenger app?

So based on someone's suggestion I moved over to using QK for sms messaging. It wasn't much better than the default messenger keyboard. Whenever I type, it's constant errors and letters that I don't press and words pushed together that I intended a space for. This is awful. Is there anything better and more advanced?

    What's odd to me is that the stock SMS app on GOS looks and feels older than the one on my previous phone from 2017.

      What does the messaging program have to do with the keyboard? If you have a problem with the keyboard, you need to change the KEYBOARD.

      And the problem you're describing is a general problem with touchscreen keyboards that you'll never escape from. Bigger screens help with it, but don't solve it fully.

      I am happy with Gboard without permissions
      Other than that I use Google Messages, permissions here are a different topic.
      Probably will work without Network, I have it activated because of RCS Chats

      Artisto as stated sounds like a new keyboard is what your looking for . I use openboard, has option to resize the keyboard to your liking .
      I use google messages app with no network because I like the ui better .

      SoulKeeper do you think its reliable?

      I would like to replace the default sms app but im afraid of it mishandling the send/receive and not send or receive messages. Do you know anything about its reliability?

      Also I really need an app that allows you to select multiple messages in a conversation and delete only those messages. Anyone know of an app that does that?

        QUIK SMS is the continuation of QKSMS and is the best ive used and is foss.

        Fossify/simple mobile tools sms is pretty good if youre not in any group conversations, but any group conversation will cause fossify to have a stroke from what I remember so youre better sticking with quik or the builtin one imo.

          Yes, I can confirm group messaging is completely broken on fossify sms.

          router99 it might be because the grapheneos messaging app has been slightly tweaked from the AOSP one witch has not had updates for a long time
