Which SMS app do you use??

[Joe113]

I run with the stock SMS, but I've heard that it uses more memory and is less efficient than other SMS apps on the android market. So i was wondering which SMS app you guys here use and is your favorite? Thanks in advance!

Are you looking for something like viber or whatsapp? There are others wich sends the sms over the same net as the stock sms app but Whatsapp and viber uses wifi or 3G.

Go sms is an alternative wich can be used for both wifi/3G and normal net

I use the stock app but turn off notifications and then use SMS pop-up for notifications. Its a really good combo.

The only SMS pop-up app in the play store is the one from Adam K

Handcent is the best for sms.

Haha, I stand corrected! Is it any good?

I used Handcent for a little while, but I didn't see what the big deal was, so I uninstalled and went back to the stock SMS app. Am I missing something? Why should I bother with a 3rd party app?

I use pansi sms. Fast and comes with quite a few features.

Agreed. What does everyone find so offensive about the stock SMS?

I use Go SMS, but am seriously considering finding something new. It was great for a while, now it is so bloated with features that I have no idea how to use 90% of them. It is beginning to remind me of MS Office products, they just keep stuffing feature upon feature in with no regards to whether anyone is using them or not...

GO SMS is bloated and everything else seems so cartoony and poorly designed. Ended up keeping it stock, but with SMS-Pop up. Best combo by far.

Stock SMS and SMS Pop up for me as well. ..tried Go as, well but like this combo better

I've never tried a 3rd party SMS app but my daughter swears by Handcent. She loves all the customization possibilities.

 

[terthii]

GO SMS all the way.

I've always used Handcent... Themes and good plugins. I also like the built in pop-ups. My daughter prefers GoSMS.

Umirerob,

Does GoSMS have good popups too? I'm thinking of changing from the stock app to one of the third party ones. I lean toward GoSMS but still not 100% sure. Plus with the update around the corner I am also looking into what ones support 4.x.

Thanks for any answers and thats from anyone for that matter!
