I was looking for a sms app that supports widget. Though this app has a widget it does not work accurately which is a bit of a disappointment.
Reviews for Color SMS: Message & Messenger
← Back to Color SMS: Message & MessengerI like this color SMS app. I have also advised my friends to install this app. My family is also using this. thanks to developers.
Came over to this app after using another customizable app for many years. I'm liking the features this app a lot! Only issue so far, I subbed with the lifetime option to be rid of the ads and unlock customizability, but I go back on and its as if I'm not subbed. It says I already own this when I reselect the lifetime option. Edit: issue has since been resolved. Been using the app for almost a year now with no issues. Amazing customizable app!
I need help. I really like this app, but I have one issue. I cannot get a sound notification when I receive a message. There is a whooshing sound when I send a message, but absolutely silent when a message is received. I need that sound! I've missed several important texts because it remained silent.
I PAID for premium to customize and the App stoped working! I get no sounds or notifications! I had to delete the app to reinstall and lost my subscription! No customer service or contact info! The wallpapers and texts are slow to load. The individual sounds do not work, so I never know who's calling or texting me correctly or even when. Fix the glitches and bugs and give a CS contact!
The custom notification sound works for ALL received texts. HOWEVER, the personalized sounds I have set for the boss, and for the wife, still do not play. All text messages play the main notification sound. Also, the "DELAYED SEND" still hides the outgoing message until after the delay, rendering it useless. (UPDATE: 1 month later, these two points are still not working. Current Version 1.8.3.1) I didn't see a change log for what 1.8.3.1 fixed? Is there anything else I can try?
Love the colors and customizations! Most texting apps are inexcuseably boring and lacking in good functionality. Really appreciate the design thought that went into this.
Love the way you can customize every detail.!! Great app at a good price, that does just as much as the over priced apps 😁
I keep having to uninstall it because it fails to download any images, videos, gifs that my family sends. (I'm not sure what type of media file it skips because it doesn't download to my system.) I love this app, except for that issue, which is why I'm giving half... 3 stars. Let me know if you fix that, and I'll happily return.
can't apply dark theme please correct this issue add option to hide or remove notification button.... someone in notification can cm click reply by SMS without biometric asking biometric verification.... to ensure privacy notification button should be optional to show or hide.
Why is there no option to search for your contact names when forwarding a photo? When you select a photo, select forward to the app - it just shows all of the names on your contact list and they don't even seem to be in alphabetical order. Makes no sense and it's very frustrating. Pls fix this apparent oversight. Otherwise it's a pretty good app.
This app has the potential for being a good replacement for Message+. Been using it for about a week - main issue is that it randomly won't download messages. All I get is a notice that the message was not downloaded. I originally thought it only happened with group texts but it also happens with individual ones. Sent an email to the supports number and received no response at all. Guess I'll need to try a different app.
I really really like this app. It's customizable and easy to use. My only dislike is a glitch where if I get a text from someone with a customized ringtone and I don't look at it right away, every other text that comes in rings with their ringtone, not the default one and vice versa. If that can be fixed I'd give 5 stars for sure.
I purchased the paid version, but should have waited. This could be a great app, but it has bugs. #1: The avatars won't load. #2: I'm typing and the font is white, which is good, then it suddenly changes to a dark color and gets very small. I can't see what I'm typing: because of this my messages get sent with lots of typos. #3: It doesn't have the option to select and delete individual messages in a thread. Instead, it deletes tthe entire thread. The developer did not respond to my inquiries.
2 stars because it customizes most of what it says it will, but there are limitations. Having to watch ads to do anything, even saving a friggin setting, is absolutely diabolical. There are other ways to keep your app free, this is ridiculous. Never, ever, have I used a text messaging app that has made me watch ads before opening settings, saving them, and having them at the top of the screen while reading messages. Fix this and the app could be tolerable. I miss Messages+ !
I love this app so far. It has a lot of different editing tools to use and things you can change. I love all the different choices, and the fact that you can change not just the theme but the font, font color, bubble, and Avatarfor not just what you send but how they send it too is phenomenal. I've tried other apps, and nothing has come even close yet. if something is for premium only and it's locked, you don't have to pay to use it. That's the only time you have to watch an ad.. Awesome job!!
This is a preliminary review as I've only had the app for a day. As far as features go, it has a lot of similarities to messages+ which is what I'm looking for (still mad at Verizon for shutting it down!) If they can get the bugs worked out, I think it'll be a pretty decent replacement. It's a not perfect replacement for messages+, but not a lot of apps are. And I refuse to go to the recommended app (g**gle)m. Edit: So far the biggest issue is group messages not coming in/sending properly
It's okay.. The customization is nice. I bought a year for no ads but I won't be renewing. Noticing glitches, like my vibrate & sound doesn't work for my texts anymore, my contact photos have all disappeared & whenever I try to add a new contact through the app, the name doesn't save. Definitely not worth paying for something that's broken. So there are pros & cons to this.
No it wasn't fixed😕. U still cannot set a customized notification for the app itself. When you open Settings, then Notifications, you'll see "Notification Customization" it's the only one you cannot set/customize a ringtone🤷🏾♀️. I just reinstalled it when I saw the editor replied, but it's not fixed. Still 1 rating🤦🏾♀️. Sucks, then after I paid for yearly cause I love the app but guess I'll uninstall it again!!
the only problem with the color sms is that I rarely receive text messages. what if I have an emergency message and I don't receive it? what I noticed in the notification setting, if it says '2 notifications per week',how can it be that there is no notification limit? I would like to be able to solve this problem as soon as possible, but I love so much this app. Like they said we can't receive text, I hope there's no limit please, I hope this will be resolved in the next update. thanks.
