notification sound in conversations
I know Textra "intentionally" disabled sounds while a conversation is open, but I would like this to be an actual option. I'm not always staring at the screen and I don't always exit from the app/convo. Unless I'm watching the phone I can never tell when someone responds (while convo is open). Just make it an OPTION!
Added in Release 3.19 of Textra out first week in May. Email us for an advance copy at help@textra.me if you cannot wait ;-)

Yes, I need this! I love Textra but need a notification, whether the conversation is open or not. the latest Lollipop removed this option, I downloaded Textra because someone told me it had these notifications, but it doesnt.

So very true. I press my power button to save battery and always expect a sound when someone texts back but never does because textra intentionally does this. It would be a great option to have and it would NOT be annoying

This should be a must in textra conversations. Many messages lost within the conversation.

I'll add my "me too" to the chorus of frustration here. I love Textra in general but am regularly annoyed by this behavior as I miss replies to conversations.

Notice there are 53 comments and only 448 votes I think maybe just delete the app and use the version one coz a lot of ppl say u can use on any network and it has notification sound when msg are open or closed. They are never gonna fix this because we're a drop in the ocean!

Mitch, I just noticed your 1-star rate on the app, and it seems you got their attention with this response:
"Delicious Inc. September 16, 2015
Please email help@textra.me for assistance, thanks heaps."Can you keep us updated please! :)

Mitch commented
Ok. Maybe if enough of us give the app a one star rating the developers will take notice so that's what I'm doing.

Mitch commented
How much longer are you going to ignore this?. All these comments and not a single reply from any developer. Does anyone read this?

This is actually a problem with the new Android lollipop update. The stock messages app does the same thing. But Textra should be able to override this and make notifications play all the time, or put a toggle in the options. I am missing many texts. Really, who did and stares waiting for another text? That's why we have notifications. Stupid move, Google.

This has gotten me in so much trouble with my boyfriend! I pick up the phone and I see a jillion messages saying "hello hello hello where are you Wth" it's awful. I hardly ever remember to back out of the conversation so needless to say we fight a lot over this stupid crap. OPTION OPTION OPTION!

This is a must-have option. I have ony been using Textra for a few days, and while I mostly love it, I have already missed important and timely texts because of this feature.

This would make this app perfect if they did this. I think the Devs don't really look at these postings but look at this one it's a must have option to crown this as thee best SMS app.
