I have no problems with this app. However, my wife only gets about 70% of the messages sent to her. It appears completely random. Sometimes she'll get them from specific people, other times she won't. Sometimes she'll get pictures, sometimes she won't. Posting the problem on the dev site hasn't resulted in any acknowledgement, let alone a fix. She isn't the only one with the problem. We're looking for a reliable texting solution.

I am having an issue with this texting app. It's NOT delivering my text messages. This is a BIG PROBLEM since that is what the purpose of the app is. To deliver & receive text messages through our phone. The $2.99 for the whole time you use this messaging app. is ok, IF IT WORKED, to be able to schedule text messages to be DELIVERED. The gifi, background etc. are very nice.
