Comments on Simple SMS Messenger for Android

★★★★★ Syed Zada · May 29, 2026
NICE GOOD WORKING I'm LOVING IT KINDLY ADD TYPING INDICATOR PLEASE
★★★★★ SHANKAR KUMAR · Jun 5, 2026
Excellent massage app regarding massage
★★★★☆ Abhishek · May 11, 2026
Used to be goto app. Why ads are being shown? I also purchased the thank-you app seriously considering writing my own sms app. Response1: there is no upgrade option that I can see. When was this added? When I had installed the app nothing like the trial period was mentioned learned that the company has been acquired by zippoapps and hence the ads. Uninstalled. Now the original apps are under ossify
★★★★☆ Fart Sniffer · Apr 21, 2026
So far it's fantastic. Anything to get the away from Google!!!! Could definitely do without the ads
★☆☆☆☆ Cortland Cort · Apr 24, 2026
I got this because it was supposed to be ad free. Apparently that is no longer the case. The first thing it did was open up an ad for a game that I couldn't exit or get past. I never even got to look at my messages. I couldn't uninstall this spamware fast enough
★☆☆☆☆ Kyu Kattzen · Apr 28, 2026
Absolute garbage now. Full screen ads, extremely slow booting. Will be uninstalling after using it for many years.
★★☆☆☆ Noneya Business · Apr 6, 2026
Retro basic messenger. You have an advertisement strip at the bottom and have to pay $14.99 for premium. This app isn't something I care for. I can't hard press for emojis to send replies.
★★☆☆☆ Micah James · May 25, 2026
This is just a copy of another app called Ossify Messages that is free, open-source and private with *no ads*. This app has lots of ads, so I'd recommend you use Ossify instead. The paid options in this app Ossify offers for free.

42 permissions

Trust & Safety: The app requests a wide range of sensitive permissions including read and write SMS, read contacts, read phone state, receive SMS, and notification access. This is typical for a feature rich messaging app but warrants careful data handling and a clear privacy policy. The development note indicates possible obfuscation (maybe_proguarded), which users may want to verify before installation.
