Messaging apps...what do you use?

[teffe2]

I've been using message+ but I'm looking for something better where I can still customize people I message the most but also send fun things like cartoonish pictures on birthdays and stuff.

I use Google Messages and WhatsApp. Used to use Allo. Loved that app. I'm upset that they killed it.

Google Messages, I'm boring and I know it ...

I'd prefer to us Pulse app because it's awesome. But I'm currently using Google messages until/if RCS is made available in 3rd party apps because I have my wife and several friends that I'm able to use it with

When I had an LG phone, I used the stock messaging app and Textra. Now, on my S10, I use the stock messaging app, with WhatsApp for work messaging.

Google Messages. RCS works great...

I tried the stock T-Mobile messaging app that came with my V60 but it was too buggy for me.

Same. It also doesn't work with a private dns

Was using the LG messaging app but switched back to Google messages yesterday amid complaints that people weren't getting my messages.

I use Textra mostly, on Nova. Fantastic app, very customizable. I do use Google Messages on One UI because I'm an icon dork and hate Textra's icon with One UI.

I too wasn't a huge fan of Textra's icon. I thought it was just me! Yay! I am totally an icon dork too!

I have been using Verizon's Message+ since I first started on Android with an HTC Incredible more than 10 years ago. In 10 years I still haven't encountered anything sufficiently robust or customizable to compare to it, so I stick with what I like.

I used to use this one and loved it, but it stopped reliably notifying me of incoming messages. That's when I swapped to Verizon's own app.

I use stock messaging on the Samsung S10+ as it supports RCS, but I used Google Messages on my Pixel devices. It is also available on the Web.

I have used Textra, pulse and also Chomp.
