Modern SMS App? (lemmy.today)

What's the most modern SMS app available? It can be only on Github too as I use Obtanium. I'm hoping for something with rounded corners and a more Apple-esc appearance.

Try Textra. Many customization options, but in regards to advanced features, it's an SMS App, although it does have the ability to undo a delete after a few seconds

Unless I'm mistaken that's not a FOSS app and also contains many trackers. I'm not trying to be rude with this comment, I came to the F-Droid community to find FOSS apps that don't track their users.

Is there an app that shows if there are trackers in it?

[-] sic_semper_tyrannis@lemmy.today 2 points 4 months ago

The Exodus Privacy website does and it's feature is built into the Aurora store

I have this app, it just won't go past a certain letter on my phone, so only apps a to F show up.

But in theory, isn't there a way to remove the tracking scripts from the APK?

[-] sic_semper_tyrannis@lemmy.today 1 points 4 months ago

Try the website instead of the app then. Removing tracking scripts is above my knowledge level

[-] thesocavault@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

Mine too. Lol. But is there an app / service that would scan APK's before you install?

[-] sic_semper_tyrannis@lemmy.today 1 points 4 months ago

Aurora Store does as long as the app has already been put on Exodus

[-] Protoman64@lemmy.today 1 points 4 months ago

Yes, I use App Manager. On APKs chose open as, app manager, scan. If the app is already installed you can also use the scanner option
