SMS app to change colors?

[agp423]

Can anyone recommend an SMS app that will change the colors of the text bubbles and background (and does no more than that)? I am currently running KitKat on the HTC One, and the stock colors are a little depressing.

I tried Contacts+ but it does too much. It's a little confusing...

I know you can do that with handcent, however I have not used that app in almost 8 months, I would first recommend downloading textra and checking if it can change what you mentioned above. Textra simply has a much better UI and looks cleaner than handcent.

Okay I went back to Contacts+. Does anyone know how to remove the text count next to each recipient's name?
