Very Impressed I don't really rate or promote apps I download, but I feel this one deserves it. Been looking for a simple SMS based app to replace the stock app, and even one better than the popular texting apps in the play store. This one takes the cake for me. The only thing I'm hoping to improve is better carrier ID for MMS service. But that's not going to stop me from rating 5 stars.

Galaxy S6 users! Please! Read this! So, i downloaded this app, because i had just before sent a message that i didnt want to send, and i really liked it! It was easy to use and very nice, but i have to uninstall. that evening, i went to work, i wasnt there for, and i see that my phone wont turn on. It turned out that my battery went from 74%, to 0% in less than 4 hours. I got home and charged it, and it worked. Dont get me wrong, this is a great app.

I have an older phone (Galaxy S4). That may b the reason why I can only send an MMS (picture) if it's already on my phone. When hit attach and take a picture the picture won't load. Other than that the is has saved me a few embarrassing texts. I would also like the option to send immediately..maybe a long press or something.

Takes forever to load Great concept but it takes 7 seconds to load. It might sound like that's no big deal but when you're talking about "instant messaging" I guarantee that will be more than enough to persuade you to abandon the app. The suspicious part of me also wonders what info the app gathers in that span of time.

good app, prevent you from make a fool of yourself if you are fast enough ;-) First I like you can give yourself a chosen timeframe to prevent you from send message. By swype right or left, you will prevent the message to send. Either you recall or delete the message. Second thing is that you can set a curfiew and prevent sending message at all within a chosen timeframe. Also here you can swype it. I would like to see this swype works on every app that you can send text messages.

Best messaging app Easy to use, and helps keep you from looking dumb, by enabling the user to correct a mistake before sending, but there is a flaw. Something in the coding adversely affected my wifi signal and turns it off no matter my setting are to keep wifi on. I had to uninstall the app because of that. Fix that wifi bug and I'll re-download.

Scott,
Apologies to hear about the drain on your battery. We've checked with our development team, and they have assured me that our app was not the cause. We do not draw enough power for it to have been us. You might want to check the power consumption on your phone to help identify the cause.
All the best,

So Much Potential Great concept. Having a grace period to review a sent message is awesome. WiFi is temporarily turned off when you send attachments, which is a BIG problem for me. Also, many attachments just fail to send at all. This would be a 5 star app if these problems were addressed.
Love hate relationship I love the consept and at times its great but it takes forever to actually load the messages allot... Not send i understand that delay i mean to just load in general.. Then MMS only sometimes work... Videos wont send aall and they are quite small its videos my native app can send.. Just hope you guys dont abandon the project and fix the bugs... Btw im on a tmo Note 4 all stock Android 4.4
This app is great with the potential to be one of the best, but has some issues. The biggest issue I'm having is that when I send an image or an attachment to someone it disconnects my Wi-Fi. This uses my carrier data plan and isn't cool. Also, you have to enter in a recipient BEFORE you compose your message. The app should allow you to compose the message before choosing who it will go to. That in itself is another safeguard to not sending a message to someone it's not suppose to go to. The app also needs a "slide" feature that allows you to slide on a message that is in your message list, and have it either call or create a reply message back to that contact, depending on if you slide left or right. This is a very basic feature that is on almost all SMS apps today. Would also love to see some options to customize the look of the app (themes, etc...). Again, the biggest issue is the Wi-Fi disconnect issue. If that doesn't get fixed soon, then I'm going to have to look for a different app. Only 3 Stars for now...
Great app from the examples they gave me after downloading. Only problem was after selecting for mms or sms not sure my data went off had no internet service. That's no good had to remove app.
It does what it says it does. Wish there was a way to have a signature and to change the colors of the conversation bubbles and it is very slow... Churn, Churn, Churn... Has a lot of potential... Will get better as improvements are made I'm sure.
Having some troubles Love the concept of the app and totally works for me. Only trouble im having is that when i try to send photos everyone is telling me they are not receiving them so im unsure of how this can be fixed. Other wise i would have given a 5 star
I've been using this app on my S5 for at least a year and LOVED it!! But I just recently got an S7 Edge, and now it loads conversations SO slow that I've been forced to switch to a different app. I tried clearing the apps cache, and that made it load much faster, but after a few more texts sent back and forth it goes back to loading very slow. Also, I think most of us would really like to see some theme/look customization options, as we're not all fans of Orange :). Overall, great concept for an SMS app, but with these new devices there needs to be an update that fixes the long loading of each conversation thread.
I'm so happy I found this app!! My phones messaging system was starting to malfunction and this saved my life. Love it so much! When I get my new phone will definitely be downloading again! 😊

Thank you, Rachel! Glad you're enjoying us! It's OK 2 issues. 1. Sometimes mms messages will take days to come through, just showing a "loading" symbol. 2. Its takes a good 20 seconds to bring up my messages 100% of the time. Kind of annoying.
One significant annoyance App works fairly well but one bug has been causing me grief. I will randomly receive old photos that people have sent me in the past. This happens several times a week.
I downloaded the app for its sole purpose of delaying my messages from sending and it fulfills that perfectly. This feature was my favorite feature from the default messaging app and it was removed therefore I downloaded this. However I also ditched iPhone for Android for its customization and this app has none. At all. The ugly orange color can't be changed from the interface, no customizable backgrounds or speech bubbles, not one thing. Even though it does what its meant to, its hard to make this my default messaging app when I don't like looking at it.
Cool but slow Good app idea but very slow in loading when I open a group text. There is a delay when the message is sent out when you decide not to recall or undo.
Wifi I love this app and how you can unsend messages, but it automatically turns WiFi off!!!!! This is kind of upsetting which is why I gave it a 3. If you fix this it would be a 5
I love this app but... For a few weeks now I've noticed that when I send a photo the app sends it sideways whilst other apps send it just the way I have it saved on my phone. On second thought version 1.0.0.75 Android version 6.0.1 Phone model SM-G930T on T-Mobile

Hi,
Really sorry to hear it's the app's not letting you receive pictures. We seem to have a couple of problems with the S5 so we'll work on that for the next release! In the mean time thanks for trying the app!
Team OST Great app but I have a problem. When I try text a contact from my contact list it won't load. It works fine if I am replying to a sent text.
I love the idea and I love the way it looks. But I can't change the notification sound. I select the one i want but it will only vibrate. Any fix? Running on moto x pure.
Well it was working fine until I tried to delete the sample/guide messages... It lagged and glitched and now one of my most important conversations is completely gone. Great.
Its Works and it works perfectly! After trying many hopeless apps that either do not activate or do not do what they say they do this app does absolutely everything perfectly. Would happily pay for this.
Great messaging app. Less likely to send messages to wrong person. It would be really nice if we can add Bitmojis to the messages.
Works perfect 👌. The creater of this app is brilliant. I changed my msg app to this 1 as my default app. I recommend this to everyone. I msged my friends to change their MSG app to this 1. To the company that created this app, I thank you. Sincerely- Greg.
Needs FIX It fails to send a photo every time. That makes this app too much of a hassle.
I have the solution to your MMS problems It's that simple, I own the engine.. I emailed this to the address below.

Thanks John! We'll be in touch :-) Can't send pics Love the recall, about to Uninstaller because I can't send pics. They always fail.
Sometimes my texts get stuck and I find later it never got sent. Also why when you send a pic it shows up side ways? UPDATE: I've discontinued using this. Too many text with attachments get stuck and never gets sent. So I have updated it to one star.
Great messaging app but.. I really want to see my smses delivered. Add that feature(notification) but other than that, I love the app.😊
Need that "X" button option. Replace, or give option, of an "X" to delay instead of swiping. And also, swiping right to delete does not work very well because it is initially to close to the right side of the screen. Need that "X" button option.
Over control I used app with my old phone when needed. Now with this new phone, new download, they want you to make this app the default messenger. Didn't have to do that before and unnecessary. Don't want as default so now it's pointless.
Liar It just delays the sending of the text. False advertisement.

Hi Laura! Yes, our technology is a delay that gives you up to 60 seconds to take back your text. Hope you give us a try and enjoy using our app :-) Started out well but messages fail to deliver and I need to resend many times
Has one fkaw I appreciate the app very much. But it sems to remove the notification sound when I receive a text. I've checked my sounds and uninstalled and reinstalled the app to no avail.
Love this App mann!!! Much needed. Bravo. How about coming up with a way that messages can expire on the recieving end
