    Please add this feature. It's slows the app down so much without it!

  • Ben Johns commented  ·   ·  Report

    This feature needs to be added ASAP. My wife is a texting machine and her phone gets limited on space. Textra is hogging nearly 2gb now! Having this option would help a lot!

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Report

    Agree - for an app that is advertised as light and fast - it's getting heavy and slow without this feature.

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Report

    This is the reason I stopped using your app. I'm trying it again now because I still don't like the stock app on my phone but I really would like to be able to set a limit on the number of texts. Surely this can't be too difficult to include?

    How is this not a thing? Get it done Textra!

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Report

    the ONE main feature I miss from my previous two SMS apps! PLEASE ADD SOON otherwise I will have to abandon TEXTRA because manually deleting all these texts is NOT on my to-do list and phone has limited space.

    I do not want this! I like to keep old messages. People just delete your threads

  • dickbutt commented  ·   ·  Report

    This should really be a default feature.

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Report

    WHY has this not happened yet. The sheer number of messages is slowing down my phone.

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Report

    Yes this would be great! I just spent 5 minutes looking through the settings before coming here to find this!

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Report

    This is really needed because some people are ocd over storage and would like to control the limits

  • skruffy commented  ·   ·  Report

    I just realized Textra isn't cleaning up new messages like my other apps always have, and now I know why it has grown to take up so much space! Please add this.

    This would definitely help to keep phone from slowing down as more texts are collected.

  • Alex commented  ·   ·  Report

    Note, this option could be very important and welcomed for Android 4.4.+ as long as only default message app can manage the database. So if one set Tetra as default then the system's message app can't trim this long message chains.

  • Alex commented  ·   ·  Report

    Yes! I've think about to send this request to developers but this idea is here already.

  • Zack S commented  ·   ·  Report

    This is definitely needed. Textra has over 9,000 messages saved. The only way I can auto-delete on Textra is by switching to my stock messing app, setting that as the default, and then enabling auto-delete. It's a one time thing to fix, but the feature should definitely be included in Textra's settings.

  • Poyda commented  ·   ·  Report

    It definitely needs this feature. I'm getting sick of highlighting one at a time!
