App seems to work well but it has a very Annoying Notification Issue. When you set the main Notification sound from the main settings it doesn't apply that sound to new messages so you have to go in and set each message thread to the desired notification sound. Reply: Thanks for the quick reply however I fully understand how the custom sounds work and how to apply them the issue is when I set the main notification sound in the app all of the new messages I create default back to the default sound that was there when I downloaded the app (it pulls the default notification sound set on my phone that is used across all the other apps) If this is still not clear if you have an email I can send you some screenshots of the problem. PS I found your email so I will send you screenshots.
