  1. Update: I'm not sure what happened, but Messages just tossed a bunch of my recent SMS messages. People were telling me they were texting me, and I wasn't getting anything. I went back to QUIK, and I can see that I received a bunch of messages, but they're all blank. YEOUCH. Bad. D:

    Just a quick FYI to my #FOSS #Android / #AOSP / #Lineage friends,

    There's a new fork of #QKSMS / #QUIK called Messages:

    Seems really nice.

  3. Tien tien tien #QKSMS qui n'est donc plus maintenu, a un fork visiblement ​:nko_curious:​

    #SMS #Quik #Android

  4. Bon toujours pas de MMS avec certains contact sur #QKSMS ... ​:blobPikaGlare:​

  5. sagen wir mal, ich mag auf einem nicht root #android 14 bevorzugt mit #fdroid, alternativ aber auch mit playstore und wenns sein muss auch gegen bezahlung apps steuern oder triggern.

    beispielsweise #qksms sagen: erstell bitte jetzt eine sicherung.

    was nimmt man dafür in 2023?

  7. J'ai l'impression que c'est le nouveau truc de #Google sms qui fait chier avec #QKSMS ​:blobfoxthonking:​

  8. #FDroid and #QKSMS to the rescue! Quick install, no terms to accept, and a slick and user-friendly interface.

    Love #FOSS!

  9. @kat Indeed. Also: most SMS I get are from companies (e.g. the post office) and I was happy to see these in #Signal rather than in Google's #SMS app, which keeps harassing me so that I send them more personal data (every single time it's launched).

    Now I switched to #QKSMS which seems good. Having to switch to yet another app in order to handle SMS securely doesn't improve anything.

  11. @ls Ja es ist irgendwie ein offener Standard, aber ziemlich kompliziert. Es gibt für die Open Source Messaging-App #QKSMS ein Issue auf Github: https://github.com/moezbhatti/qksms/issues/1522

    Von Simple SMS, gibt's auch ein Issue: https://github.com/SimpleMobileTools/Simple-SMS-Messenger/issues/157

    Zusammenfassung, was ich so raus gelesen habe: Viele wünschen sich das Feature, aber seit vielen Jahren kam keine Umsetzung zustande, weil #RCS super komplex ist, eventuell hat Google da doch noch einen API Freipunkt nicht frei geschalten bzw. Teile von RCS sind noch offen, sondern closed.

    Naja und wenn ich ehrlich bin, sieht's auch nicht gerade so aus, als ob RCS im Aufwind ist. Sämtliche Telekommunikations-Anbieter ziehen sich eher daraus zurück, wenn man dem Wikipedia-Artikel glauben kann.

  14. #QKSMS released a new version (3.10.1) 2 weeks ago, nearly 2 years after the previous. Good timing, considering the end of SMS support by #Signal.
    Available on F-Droid.

  16. @foss_android I love #qksms+
    This is just an #sms #app but with nice #ui, smooth animations and some functionality like pin/unread/archive sms !!! That's soooo nice!

  17. :signal: will stop supporting SMS. Looking for a solid FOSS alternative for that component? 👉 : f-droid.org/packages/com.moez. :fdroid: :android:

  18. @madnuttah cool, I heard of this a few times already... Seems like a viable option.

    Any idea how compares to ?

  19. Partisan #SMS is still maintained and a rebranded version of #qksms

    For those who are looking for an alternative SMS app.

  20. Hey @askfedi,

    Now that #Signal will soon remove support for #sms on #Android, which sms app should I choose?

    I'm having eyes on #TextraSMS, #ChompSMS, and #SimpleSMS. Are there other apps I should consider?

    #GoogleMessages is out of question.

    #QKSMS and #Silence both seem to be abandonware.

    #PulseSMS seems to be acquired by a less reputable company.

  22. So which #sms app to use after #signal drops SMS support?

    I read #QKSMS is good, but also has many open issues and no release since one year.
  23. @servant @proactiveservices

    Yeah. Honestly, I was never impressed with Signal as an SMS app.

    I think it's the right choice.

    For anyone looking for an app because of 's upcoming change, definitely give a look. It's on , and it's pretty legit.

    No support for sending videos, though. Not like you'll really miss those potatotastic 3GPP slideshows. :P

  25. اولین نسخهٔ پیش‌نمایش از برنامهٔ #PRSMS منتشر شد.
    این برنامه یک انشعاب از برنامهٔ #QKSMS است و فعلاً با این برتری که تقویم جلالی هم دارد و باگ برعکس بودن شماره‌ها هم در آن برطرف شده است.
