I'm currently using Evolve SMS, what about you?

I have evolve sms and I like it, but hangouts has matured and it is my favorite at the moment.
 
Has it gotten less laggy? The last time I used it for texting it lagged a lot.
Seems fine to me, I have been using it as my main sms app for a month or so and kind of like it's simple clean layout, not as pretty or feature rich as evolve sms, but it does everything I need, except attaching contact v cards, and I have family using hangouts now so it's easier to use one app for everyone.
 
I tried a few and the interface that I liked was Handcent so I stuck with that and have had no problems at all.
 
I use Hangouts primarily. I try not send actual SMS's much because I have a weird Hong Kong carrier that is a good deal (10 GB across two phone lines for about 70 usd) but charges extra per SMS. Go figure. It's not a big issue here though, because everyone seems to use free messaging apps. So I send Hangouts messages on Hangouts. I use QQ/WeChat as a backup for people who don't have Hangouts. And I have WhatsApp on my phone, although I don't use it much.

I like Hangouts well enough. No serious problems with it.
 
Hangouts is my default. It runs great for me.

Sounds good. I will try it out again.
 
I use Go Sms mostly.....I have been thinking about switching back to Hangouts though.

And just to be clear, the SMS messages sent through Hangouts DO NOT get sent to Google's servers right? It just stays on my device?

Nope. Doesn't go to their servers.

Been using hangouts, it just works well and I like the sms/hangouts integration.

Before that I was using evolve.

I use Textra. I started using it when I got my AT&T G2 because group message didn't work properly. Although that was fixed, I still liked Textra better than the stock app. Its a simple app that works great. It lets you pick the color of the bubble and text, background dark or white, color of notification indicator, and notification light color, and other options. Its free, and developers respond to questions about setup and appreciate feedback about use.
