App slowly improving, the round circle reset icon needs to be hidden or ask for a confirmation upon it being pressed. Many times have accidentally pressed button, wiped keys and had to reset all app data on both apps to repair keys as once pressed it wipes the keys and doesnt encrypt, nor does it repair properly. Tested on Graphene OS.

If I view the message directly (by opening the app manually) the "unread" notification doesn't disappear. It's also missing the message bubble functionality. Sending doesn't work, you can only receive sms on this app... Update: images are not showing.

I'm desperately searching for a messaging app to replace signal since it's become useless now. Deku SMS would be it if it could send and receive pics, but it doesn't work like the app description says it does. That's too bad, because everything else about this app is great.
