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.

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.

Yes. I have friends who solely rely on SMS. Best is when they try to send a video.

Crazy… I would really encourage to use DekuSMS then. It also has picture support and encrypted SMS if both use the app and opt in to encryption.

Otherwise SMS is insecure as hell.
