Ratings and reviews

Sorry it took me so long to update this review. The app now blocks spam very well. Half the time, though, it won't let me schedule a text (the other half the time it will). Question: when will I be able to send pictures? I've donated/paid for all features already and can't figure out why it never sends them. I can attach them but they never send and re-tapping the image as directed never works either. Thanks!

Switched from google's messages app due to a stupid bug which broke functionality. This is light weight and does what it should. Only issue I have ocasionaly when shairing from other apps it sends to the last person i was texting instead of the person I selected from the list. However it shows the message in the conversation before sending.

Works surprisingly well for an app that's no longer maintained for over a year. It's clean, simple, and does what it needs to do. A small donation unlocks a few extra customizations. Thankfully it's open source, so anyone can continue where the developer left off if they wish.
