Textra SMS

Textra SMS is a fast, feature-rich messaging app built to replace your phone's default SMS and MMS experience. If you want deeper customization, scheduling options, or simply a snappier interface, this app delivers all three.

Customize every detail of your messaging. Choose from over 180 material design themes, adjust bubble and app icon colors, and pick between light, dark, black, night, or Android screen modes. Set up multiple bubble styles, configure signatures and notifications per conversation, and select from 21 text sizes and multiple font options. Emojis come in Android, Twitter, JoyPixels, and iOS styles—all with full diversity support for skin tones.

Schedule messages to send at a future time, add send delays before they go out, and use slide-to-delete or slide-to-call gestures for faster interaction. Snap photos directly from the app, browse your gallery with multi-select support, and enjoy quick reply popups that don't interrupt your workflow. Voice memos, GIF integration, and iOS reaction support (including tapbacks) let you communicate the way you want. Copy partial text from any bubble with a single tap, and enjoy automatic compression for videos and pictures to save bandwidth.

Group messaging works smoothly with enhanced MMS support. Block unwanted contacts or entire numbers, and mute notifications or pin conversations to the top for quick access. Apple devices sending reactions will now display as emoji overlays on your messages, just like on iOS. Message blocking and per-conversation notification settings give you full control over what reaches you and when.

Integration with Pushbullet, MightyText, and Android Auto means you can reply to messages from your car or desktop without reaching for your phone. Notifications stay synced across your devices with quick-reply options built in.

All core features are free to use forever. Ads appear occasionally, but you can remove them permanently with a one-time in-app purchase. Textra SMS gives you a messaging experience that's both simple and powerful—built for speed and designed around your preferences.
