Looking for a FOSS SMS app that is fully compatible with Android 14. I’ve had issues with finding one, I used to use (I think) QKSMS, but it started to crash when I upgraded to LOS 21. Now I just use the LineageOS SMS app, I think it is AOSP messages.
What SMS apps do you use? No required features. Scheduled texts are nice, though.
So is QUIK FOSS? Because I just installed it, I used to use Textra. I like the features of it.
Look at the link
I’m kinda new to this, so I was just wondering.
Yes it is FOSS just like the other recommendations in my other comment.
At 60MB it is pretty bloated for an SMS app though, so I would prefer something simpler like Fossify Contacts, or something with encryption like Deku SMS
Thanks. I understand the bloated part, but personally for me, coming from Textra, it’s comparable to what I had, minus the trackers
Haha, okay then… what features do you find so useful?
For example timed messages… I dont use SMS at all XD
If I do, I would prefer DekuSMS as it has AES encryption so at least you are not spied on (if both use DekuSMS)
2 main features - the ability to make the texts bigger by percentage. So I was able to make the texts about 125 percent bigger. The other main feature was to have a media picker integrated into the app when sending a picture ect.
Also a bonus was having Giphy integrated as well, but I know that definitely has trackers involved.
But overall I do like Quik.
People send images via SMS? XD doesnt that cost money or something?
Yes. I have friends who solely rely on SMS. Best is when they try to send a video.
