At the very least, we should be able to change the color of the text - both the message itself and the accompanying date/time/contact info to a color that provides better readability.

Google messenger has a nice random color scheme per contact, that also looks great in group mms. I would love something like this in Textra.

Yes I really like how Google Messenger has a different theme color for each contact and it would be awesome if Textra could do the same vs only being able to change the bubble color. This way there is uniformity within each contact vs them all having the same universal theme color and the same colored title bar on top.

Let the theme for the contact change to the bubble color you choose for that contact, or allow picking a color theme for individual contacts, like Google messenger. That's one reason I started using messenger over textra recently. It's easier to differentiate between contacts.

Yes! I love this. Better yet, instead of completely random, it'd be great if textra picked a prominent color from contact's thumbnail photo. This is how Google Messenger does it and some other SMS apps that have followed suit. It's an awesome feature that really does make the experience more enjoyable.

Like new app Messenger from Google, change color theme by Pic from contact
