Dynamic Chat Bubbles
While I love the overall design of the app, the only thing that bothers me is the fact that the chat bubbles in conversation don't "stack" as they do in Google Messages and iMessage (i.e. if you receive multiple text messages back to back, the chat bubbles flow together with only the most recent text having a 'tail' on it). It would really clean up the look of message threads.

Text Message Reactions
Can you support (graphically) the text message reactions of iMessage. they can like, emphasis, and love text messages. Would be a great feature. Would love to see if iMessage can also do the same from Android phones.

unread messages stay at top
I would love to see unread messages stay at the top. I get so many messages some I don't respond to immediately. it would be a great reminder if these were always at the top instead of getting lost in their shuffle.

Hide title bar in landscape mode
Allow for the title bar with contact information to be hidden when typing in landscape mode, It takes up a lot of screen real estate, and on my Galaxy S2 I actually can't see what I am typing when using landscape mode, only the title bar and keyboard. I'd rather be able to see the input box. Maybe a fullscreen keyboard toggle would work?

Nexus 5, Android 5 - Priority Mode Issue
Nexus 5, Android 5, Textra as standard SMS app:
Textra ignores Priority Mode. Even with Priority Mode on (and messages set as not important/not a priority - meaning: phone shouldn't beep for SMS in Priority Mode) Textra plays notification sound anyway when SMS arrives.
That's pretty bad, because at night one switches to Priority Mode, since this is the mode that allows the alarm to wake me up in the morning.
I guess the root of the problem is that there is no silent mode any more in Android 5. It's been replaced with Priority and None Mode (None doesn't…

Bubble color
Here my suggestion/request. I see that you can change the bubble color per contact and that's a nice feature but can it be made an option for the theme to be random. Meaning each contact is given a different color until changed if desired rather than all being the same color. Also if I change certain contact bubbles to different colors and I have a group text with them it be nice if the bubbles were the color chosen rather than the default theme color. Kind of like Google messenger but I'd like to use your app..

Change font in Textra
Could we have the option to change the font to be different from our system font. You know like if we have font packs installed on our phone, Textra can import those fonts and we can choose from one of those.

Ability to highlight certain text within a message to copy/forward/search etc.
Allow quick highlighting instead of having to copy the entire text, or taking the long route of forwarding the entire message, picking a recipient, then selecting the part you need to copy.
And maybe include the option after highlighting to forward, search (online), or even call if numbers were highlighted.Please vote and implement this feature asap. Thanks!

Unread msgs options
A few things that can be added and should essentially be there in a any messaging app:
Count of the unread msgs on top when the app is open or on the particular msg thread
Clear differentiation between read and unread msgs(keep them bold if unread). At the moment if the msg notification is swiped then it is marked as read which doesn't make sense at all
Option to mark msgs as read or unread

Reminder notification sound
It would be great if we could select a different reminder notification sound. I use a simple tone for messages, but if I miss the initial notification, then I use a load long notification sound to get my attention our wake me up. This is a feature handsent has that is critical for me. Thanks for listening

Change default storage location for all messages
Textra is noticeably experiencing worse speed and fluidity when text in conversations get too long (you many messages in one convo). For example, there is a delay between pressing send for a message and the message appearing in the convo for longer conversations. Therefore, if all messages can be stored on the SD card instead of in the limited internal storage, Textra can just "read" the messages and won't be as bogged down, increasing both app speed AND functionality (larger storage = more room to save important conversations).
