It is very simple to use. Simplicity is good! Now I can comfortably text how I want.

The app works well and has a good set of settings. The only drawback is an unusual long boot time. It takes 7-8 sec to boot before display the messages. Why so long ? My phone is new and starts the other apps quickly.

It's great, but keeps bugging me to review it, so I have to deduct a star.
★★★★★Donna Schwab· Jul 27, 2026
I like this app. It's much better than Google messages.

The excellent original app was sold to ZippoApps in 2023. Current version assaulted me on first start with a loud demand to install another app - pure garbage now, misleadingly indicating the original owner (not the current ZippoApps!!!) You can supposedly get rid of the adds for "mere" $15 per WEEK!

The basic free version is so limited that I am unable to give a fair review of the app... So they get nothing better than a 2 star until this changes. What little I have been able to test by this very restricted free version seems to show potential, but unless I have missed something, this app doesn't seem to have a one time purchase price... I can only find a monthly or yearly fee for usage. I will NOT pay for monthly/yearly service... I would rather just deal with the constant ads.
