  1. Let us choose what quick reply method we prefer

    I much preferred the new style of quick reply (the one prior to this update) as it was truly 'quick'. This best of both worlds version feels like a step back and I'd like the option to revert back to the old style.

  3. Visible lock screen notification

    Handcent lights up the screen when you get a message so the lock screen notification is very obvious and visible (just like on iPhones). Would love to see Textra do that - most of the time I don't notice I have a message unless I pay attention to the blinking light.

  5. Add an option to disable quick delete

    I find it far too easy to do by accident, and there's to confirm, no undo, and no trash. One swipe, one tap, and it's gone forever.

  8. Make "Theme & Accent Color" change along with custom bubble colors

    Similar to how Google's Messenger app let's you choose a contact's color, which changes both the bubble and the title bar colors, rather than how Textra only let's us choose custom bubbles per contact.

  10. Ability to name group texts

    Be able to name different groups of people as 'text groups' instead of just listing the names of everyone on the string. When large numbers of people are on a group thread, and you have similar text threads with the same people but one or two people different, it would be nice to be able to manually name the group so you have an idea of who is in it! And/or set a picture for that group of people.

  11. saving pictures from within textra app to phone's gallery

    I'd like to be able to save pics taken (and sent to me) from within the Textra app to my phone's gallery. Maybe I'm missing something, but even after selecting the "download" option, I'm only able to view Textra pics by opening the gallery from within the Textra app - they don't appear in my gallery when opening the gallery from my home screen.

  12. Please add option to block all MMS messages

    because of StageFright security issue in all android devices from android 2.2 to 5.1.1 included. MMS is easiest vector of attack, you only need to know someone phone number

  13. Background Customization

    Message+ allowed you to put a picture as a background to all the conversations. It would also let you put different backgrounds behind specific conversations. It was the only texting app that had that feature I hope Textra can implement this feature!

  15. Link addresses to Google Maps

    Why not have texted addresses link to opening Google Maps, for finding locations? The default Google Messages app already does this. Why doesn't Textra?

  17. Custom Notification Sound

    There should be a feature to allow users to have a notification sound for this specific app. I have a Galaxy S8 and have a certain sound I would like to use but I don't have the option to apply a notification sound to this app. There is an option to do that with the pre installed messaging app but I really like Textra.

  19. Settings backup

    Please for the love of whoever you pray to. Please add the google backup API so it automatically backups the settings. I've had to change phones 3 times due to problems and evertime I install from Google this one I have to go through and set up everything again. Very few apps now I have to setup as they download how they were on my old phones. Please please please make this happen.
