Bitesms is much better than stock messages and its not even close.... But if you prefer something a little more native and basic, give Auki a try its great as well... I'm just so used to the options and features in bitesms at this point that I can't get off it (Sounds like an addict lol)
pay for the license, I think it's totally worth it for a great app that gets updated consistently. The theming alone is worth the license for me.
But I don't remain JB all the time and probably won't on iOS 8 so it doesn't make a lot of sense for me.
My trial is gonna expire soon too. I think I might try out something simple that'll have quick reply and quick compose.
Couria has quick compose and quick reply and it's free. I don't need or want contact pictures or themes. I prefer a lighter jailbreak and as close to stock as possible.
Yep that's what I was asking. I like it so far. Nice simple and what I was looking for. Thanks for the recommendation.
Personally, I use Auki because I like customising my messages app and I don't want BiteSMS to get in the way
It's not fully updated for 7.1.x but it many parts of it will work
I'm using the version from his beta repo if that helps
If that's all you need, I HIGHLY recommend Messages by Ma Jun. I love that tweak.
I use bitesms instead because I need the scheduled messaging for my work. Plus I use it for personal texts at times. Plus I like having the Delayed Sending feature. Can't count how many times I hit send and then realized I wanted to edit my text. I can do that with BiteSMS.
