Delayed text messages using OP3

[tpmbb10]

Every so often I'll be texting with someone using the OP3 Messenger app and when I send a text it will have a status of "Sending..." for up to 45 seconds or so. I would say this happens around 10% of the time and it becomes problematic when I'm trying to have a "real time" conversation over text.

I don't recall every having this issue with past phones (unless I was underground, etc) and wondering if anyone knows if this is an issue with the phone, the app, or perhaps my carrier?

Is your signal good when this happens? Can you try using a different SMS app, like Google Messenger or Hangouts?

Signal is decent but not spectacular. Thanks for the suggestion of a different SMS app - it didn't occur to me since I've always used the default SMS app of whatever device I've owned. I'll try Hangouts for a start and see how I get along. Thanks again!
