International Contacts
To text an international contact, I must create a new contact different enough that TextMate does not pick my local contact.
Example. I go to Cuba. I text someone, number is eight digits, 55446688. But Textra sends it to 0115355446688. Of course it fails, and I must edit and eliminate 01153 and resend.
I go home and send a text to 0115355446688, an additional number in my contact. It fails because Textra picks up 55446688. So I must edit my contact and try again. Very frustrating. Sometimes I must eliminate an entire conversation before it works.

hello, I have the same issue, on a Blackberry keyone, I save my contacts with an international format using + and 2x/3x digit country code. But if a message comes from the carrier without this digits or for example a 0 prefix, then textra thinks it is not my contact and starts a new conversation. So I have for example 3 different chats with my wife currently
