gollygeewillikers, 21 Apr 2018I would advise anyone using Android (looking at you, Samsun... moreI always use stock sms apps in all of my phones. And I never get disappointed.

I don't know it's me or there is someone else who don't care about sms app and keyboards.

    I would advise anyone using Android (looking at you, Samsung phone users) to use Google Messenger as the default texting app. It's prettier, has color options for contacts, and can hold more messages (like thousands). And it doesn't get bogged down, which is why I switched in the first place. Try it! You'll like!
