Ratings and reviews

Overall great. I'm using this on an android flip phone since it's the one that uses the dpad the best and has an interface that mimics a dumb phone the best. The only issue is that it doesn't do any MMS or group messages. It is the only thing stopping me from keeping it as my main SMS app. It would be perfect if it did. The developer seems to have spent 4 years saying no to MMS support, despite the user feedback. So take that large grain of salt when using this app.
