Textra SMS Customer Insights

1. Kind of a bummer.I love Textra and have been using it for the last couple years, but lately I've been having issues where some messages are not coming through, especially in group chats.

2. Also, to search a particular thread from someone rather than all messages would be nice too.I've been using Textra for many years.

3. Last, if your stuck with selecting one image at a time, it would be easier if the folder didn't close after selecting the first image.Update: Appears to have been borne from some sort of conflict with the Pixel Pro 7 T-Mobile update.

4. Will update the review when it's fixed.i have a dual Sim phone and would have to change my primary sms app in order to receive mms messages from the secondary sim.

5. it also integrates with bitmoji just fine.Been using Textra for years and years and loved it.

6. I'd like to see the ability to search for any links sent or received rather than having to scroll through a thread hoping you come across one.

7. However, one feature I miss that the app built into my phone has is that you can search through individual messages.

8. I switched from Google Messages and the experience has been flawless.

9. It woukd be great if a future upgrade included the agility ,&to select a default image location or move folder icons into your preferred order.

10. If I could search individual messages as well as all of them at once, I would be thrilled!I'm really liking this texting app.

11. It has seamlessly transitioned across multiple phones I've owned throughout the years, and the best part is that I don't have to go through the hassle of familiarizing myself with a new interface every time.

  • When I look at a delivered message in Textra, all times I've entered such as 10 am, 5 pm etc. are underlined in the delivered Textra bubble.
    I have checked everywhere on the cell, auto correct is turned off on my Android phone. I've checked all of my keyboard input settings. I've checked my Textra settings and I cannot find a spot to turn off this auto underlining of time.
    I am using a Samsung S21 Ultra running Android V12. Textra is V4.47.
    I'm only seeing this time underling in Textra delivered texts. I don't see the underline when I type the texts.

  • Hello,
    If I use the blocks list option on a group text will it block the individual users from sending direct sms to me? Also, does block list completely hide the messages or just mute.

    I'm in a group chat I want no part of but want to be able to send and receive sms to individuals in the group.
    Thanks!

  • everytime you upgrade my app, the notification sound does not work, it only vibrates. I dont know what is going on here, help me understand what I am doing wrong

    — by mike chaplin 2 years ago

  • Hi, I use textra and I have been very happy with it. However, when I get a new text, a small green circle with a number in it appears. Generally this goes away once the text has been opened. However, for some texts/ people, the notification circles do not disappear and I cannot figure out a way to get rid of them. The notification stays no matter how many times I open the test.

    I look forward to hearing from you.

  • I have been a happy user for many years, but last week the app started working completely differently. Incoming messages no longer open in the app, but in a bubble. Then, when I click on "open in app" the message doesn't store on the phone. I haven't installed any new apps that i can recall, and I don't remember changing any permissions. Can you help me return textra to its former behavior?

  • After the latest update on my ATT Samsung s10e yesterday the pop-up notifications no longer work properly. Instead of the normal textra pop-up notifications, now it pops up as a bubble and there's no way to turn it off. Not only that but when it pops up as a bubble there's no way to clear it until I physically open the app and clear it. Please fix this ASAP.
