Comments and Reviews
Actually there are in-app purchases for QKSMS+ app for 2,89€ (currently) for the following functionality:
Coming soon:
Please do yourself a favor and don't download this app. It is no longer maintained and simply fails to receive texts on some phones.
QKSMS is a dead project, but QUIK is a continuation of that project.
So if you liked QKSMS, check out QUIK.
It would the best and only messenger I would use (other than encrypted) if the scheduled message feature wouldn't crash the app when you delete a scheduled message. Also it can not schedule send photos.
The having to remember to sync action when exporting message history to import onto new phone sucks too.
Was good, then stopped being able to send pictures by SMS. Then started getting SMS arriving 1 or 2 days late.
"QKSMS is an open source replacement to the stock messaging app on Android." Can anyone recommend a replacement for the stock messaging app on iOS?

Latest version is v3.10.1 (pre-release) from 1/16/2023. Developer explains their absence and the lack of an official update at the bottom of the closed "Abandoned App #1881" issue on GitHub. tl;dr: It's still under development.
