Invert mute symbol
The mute symbol should be inverted. It should show current state/status instead of 'what will happen if I press/select this'

Chat Head Overlay
We'd like to see a chat head overlay similar to that seen on Facebook's Messenger app. I love the ability to quick respond and pull down the drawer to do so, but having it on screen is a neat aesthetic that I think many users would enjoy.
Facebook currently offers sending SMS from their messenger chat heads, but its not nearly as intuitive or customizable as Textra. No chat head SMS app currently runs smoothly, and they dont offer anything remotely close to Textras options. I believe it would be wise to tackle this feature before everyone else is running…3 votes -
Customize the times for light & dark mode
As is, it will adjust from 10pm - 6am, but this feature would be improved greatly with manual customization or sync with sunrise/sunset for your local area

MMS archive
It would be awesome if there was an option within a specific text thread (person you text) where you can click and see all of the sent and received images in one place.

When others have Textra
You guys should do like.. if others have this app, that they can send it to those who do like if it's just a messaging app like WhatsApp or Telegram type things. And the marked red could be the accent color. I would love that so much. And if they don't, regular SMS and to sign up could be with your phone number or something. But they would have to have Textra to message with data or wifi and have the option to opt out of it. And maybe these people would have read receipts with the check marks like…

Easy "add to contacts" button
One key feature that I think is missing is an easy add to contacts button when you receive a text from an unknown number. The button would take you right to the built-in "adding a contact" screen with the number already inserted so you only have to add the name to the contact.

I would like to see an option that for group texts, I could choose SMS only so if they only have SMS capabilities, they could receive group.
Not everyone is set up to receive MMS. So when I send out a text to 2 or more people, I'd like to have an option to send SMS only, so I wouldn't have to send out the same text so many times.

Opt out of a conversation, partly or completely, Temporaily or permanently
You can currently mute a conversation, and this is smart. But this could be enhanced and become much more versatile.
I suggest to enhance the mute with the ability to (temporarily) set a specific conversation to "silent alerts", or "no notifications" or even "ignore" (new messages are deleted from the thread)
These options could also be offered for 'unknown senders' against spam.
In the advanced version it could even be automated so you could select windows in time where it is off/on. Either scheduled, or select a specific mode for the next XX hours.
Scenario: You are working in a…

Move the send button to a safer place
The send button is very near the right edge of the screen and is very sensitive. Many modern phones has edges that are overly sensitive or/and easy to touch.
It happens to me all the time that i accidentally touch the far edge of the phone, and thus send the sms prematurelly. This never happens on other text apps like Google Messenger.3 votes -
View ALL contacts
Several contacts are missing when searching for them. They are visible in stock contacts, Nine Exchange mail etc, but not in Textra. After initiating an sms from the stock contacts, the contact suddenly appear in Textra. This problem has nothing to do with an update, as suggested in your KB.

The ability to change the entire color scheme of each individual contact, like in Google messenger
One feature I like about messenger that I would love to see in textra is the ability to change the entire color scheme of each individual contact, not just the bubbles. Also having the ability to change the 'Screen Color' to one color and the heads up to another.

Allow add recipients while writing a message in existing conversation
When in a conversation with someone, while writing a message, the ability to add an extra recipient!
Scenario: I'm texting with a friend and decide to ask him for say dinner, but can't just add his spouse or more friends to the message, to extend the party!?!?!
Currently we need to mark all, cut, back out, create a new message to all the relevant ones, and then paste in the message. Or forward it afterwards, splitting the conversation. It really drives me nuts...
(The lack of this basic feature goes for native messaging on Android and Ios as well)

Show messages from larger groups in conversation
When displaying a conversation with ONE person (more generally any group that is a SUBgroup) in a group-conversation, then INCLUDE the messages from the larger group (optimally in different colour, and let clicking the bubble jump to the larger conversation).
Currently when I get a 1:1 reply I can not see what the last message he/she actually got was, if it was a group message, and it can be quite a search to find what a "Yes, I would love that!" really is all about a several days later....

Not all notifications have been read
When you swipe away a Textra notification from the notification tray, it automatically thinks it's read. Please make it so that the message is not actually 'read' until you open the conversation, whether that be in quick reply or the actual app. Because i use Tesla Unread with Nova Launcher and the notification counter of Tesla disappears on Textra once i swipe a message away because Textra thinks I've read it when I've not. So please keep all messages unread until the quick reply is open, or the actual conversation with that contact in the app!

Update the strip accents and diacritics feature
I have some suggestions about the "Strip accents and diactritics" feature.
Instead if stripping everything unfamiliar in Western Europe, I suggest it should change Unicode characters to legal ones closely resembling them.For example:
upper case Á should be upper case Å or lower case à
upper case Ú should be lower case ù
upper case Ó should be lower case ò
upper case Í should be lower case ì
upper case Ő should be upper case Ö
upper case Ű should be upper case Ülower case á should be lower case à
lower case ú should be lower…3 votes -
