Remove Giphy/Switch providers
Giphy was bought out by Facebook today, likely as part of Facebook's attempts to scrape more data from as many people as they can. I think we should have the ability to disable Giphy integration if we want. I really don't want Facebook to track giphs sent to my friends and I think there will be a lot of people who feel the same way.

Themes
It would be nice to have permanent themes. Pride themes, where the colors change with the Rainbow. Halloween themes, where bubbles have spider webs or black cats. Tie Dye, Glitter, Earth Day, Etc...some of us celebrate things all year long.

Show emoji for iphone tapback response
This is rolling out for Google Messages on Pixel phones. I'd like to see the same implemented for Textra users. Currently, if you're in a conversation with an iPhone user, and they react to a message, it comes through as all text (ie, "Joe laughed at [message text]". The requested change is to display the emoji reaction, rather than the text

Remove self from group messages
There needs to be a remove self from group messages option. It would also be great to have a setting that automatically removes self from recieved group messages if you don't want to recieve group messages and don't want to blocklist anyone. Example: someone sends me a group message and I don't want to be a part of that group message and don't wanna block anyone so only the group message gets blocked yet allows the sender or others within the group to message you individually without being blocked. Currently if you add a group message to blocklist then everyone in that group gets blocked.

add people to existing conversation
As with other apps, it'd be nice to be able to add a person to an existing group conversation, without having to create an entire new dialogue.

We need a search option in each individual thread or conversation.
This is a simple feature many of your users want. It's common in other text apps I've used. I was surprised to see it is not available here.

Textra Accounts
We should have a Textra account or some way to back up our messages so they can easily transfer to a new phone. I just got a new phone and had to transfer my messages to the Samsung messages app and back up my phone using my Samsung account to get my messages on my new phone and then switch my default texting app back to Textra. An account or back up option would be so helpful!

"Improved media selection" is not an improvement
The new media selection feature is more annoying than convenient. I liked being able to quickly add 1 image with 1 tap of the thumbnail.
The new feature is nice for adding several at once, but the checkbox (circle) is too small and annoying to hit right. Additionally, in the vast majority of cases, I'm only trying to send 1 photo at a time anyway.
I suggest defaulting to the old behavior with a setting and/or a live switch to enable multi-add. Maybe tap to select and hold to expand a thumbnail.
