Best SMS MMS App to Replace "Hangouts"

[Iggymart]

Although, I'm not a huge fan of third party sms/mms apps, I've chosen Textra as my default, based on customizations and ability to have different texting tones for individuals.

I've been bouncing around between apps, and right now I'm using Hello SMS. Nice clean interface, but pretty simple. I was using Textra, but was having some issues with MMS handling. I actually really like Hangouts as an SMS client, but its handling of MMS is pretty awful.

I've changed my SMS app like 85 times.......lol

I'm currently using 8sms right now and I'm happy with it
