I have precisely the opposite problem - emoticons are shown as their plain ASCII representation instead of the "standard" Android emoticons being displayed. The free messaging apps all have this functionality, so why doesn't Textra?
I've paid for the full version and I've even installed the "Textra Emoji - Android Style" in an effort to get them to display, but to no avail.
PLEASE add this feature as a switchable option for those of us who were rather fond of the simple emoticons (without having to resort to the ridiculous craze of Emojis).
