SMS text messaging app

Loving this app. I've been getting a lot of spam texts from email addresses lately and my default messages won't allow me to block them because they aren't from phone numbers and a lot of free apps require you to pay for premium in order to get the feature for that. Since I've started using this app, I haven't gotten a single email spam text. Thanks for providing ppl a way to stop the aggravation. UPDATE: will not allow me to receive or send images.

I would like the app better if I didn't have problems with sending. Take this evening, I sent a group text, the message was long, had no probkem with sending. Then I had two people I was sending a message to, individually, and the sending would have a swirling circle, letting you know that it was trying to send, but it just "sat" there and spun, never sending. I'm in the same location, sent the group, long message, with no problem, but short, individual message, just buffers.

The UI is beautiful and I really want this to be my main texting app, but it's kinda slow and laggy for me. The notification sound and the actual notification don't come at the same time. The notification sound will chime as if there's 2 notifications when it's only 1. Reading my messages doesn't clear the notifications from the notification bar up top. PLEASE FIX. Is there not an option to delete old messages ??
