Description

Textra is an alternative to your stock SMS/MMS app (that came preinstalled on your phone). So, whether you're looking for a faster experience, better customization options, more color or just a specific feature (like scheduling a text in the future) you've come to the right place.

Feature rich, notably 180+ material design theme, bubble & app icon colors. Light, dark, black, night & android screen modes, multiple bubble styles, scheduled (future) SMS & MMS, send delay, slide to delete, slide to call, quick snap camera, multi-select picture gallery, quick reply SMS popup, awesome MMS GROUP messaging, quick voice memos, endless GIFs, 21 text sizes, multiple font options, message blocker / blocklisting, pin-to-top, automatic video & picture compression, support for iOS reactions, iOS emojis & heaps more!

Customize your preferred theme & bubble colors, signatures and notifications (icon shape, sound, privacy, reminders, and muting) per conversation as well.

Get all the latest Android, Twitter, JoyPixels & iOS style emojis including diversity (skin tone). Just pick your preferred emoji style and express yourself!

NEW: Added support for Reactions (also known as Tapbacks) received from iOS Apple devices. So, for example instead of seeing an incoming message saying: Loved "See you at 9pm", you'll now see a love heart emoji superimposed on the message you sent. Just like on iOS devices, Facebook Messenger etc. You can also send reactions!

NEW: Copy Partial Text tap a bubble to check out this great new feature that allows you to copy any part of the text in a bubble!

It's pretty special; try it, tell your friends, shout from the treetops, but most of all enjoy it.

Fully compatible with Pushbullet, MightyText, Android Wear and Android Auto (car) for enhanced notifications and quick reply.

All Textra features are free forever. Occasionally you'll see an ad, or you can choose to make a once only in-app purchase to remove ads forever.

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

1 ★Would receive 5 as it has great features including delayed send unavailable in stock app. Ads are unintrusive. However, app stopped working in past week (failed send errors on wifi and cellular data). Excluded from memory cleaning apps as recommended, reinstalled etc. to no avail. Will have to return to stock unfortunately. Update issue perhaps? Galaxy S10, AT&T.
1 ★I've been loving this app until recently. I don't receive messages in the most important family group chat. All of my messages/pics fail trying to send. So frustrating! However, it works with individual chats - most of the time. I'm thinking I need to switch to a different texting app but I really loved this one!
4 ★Hello I enjoy the app and feel it is one of the best out here. However, I would love to see the simple features of being able to: 1. Set the back ground image to an image of my own choosing like you can on Android phone's home screen or lock screen. 2. Allow you to like someone's text in a group chat. 3. Allow you to add an remove ppl from group chats without having to create a new group. Thanks Update Still like the app just hoping for so functional updates
5 ★I've been using Textra for at least 2 or 3 years and like it very much. It offers a multiplicity of features that make texting easy and they are constantly working to improve it. They also, when you have a question or problem can be reached via email under the Help section and respond promptly. I highly recommend it. Unlike apps like What's App or some of the other texting apps, they are not mining your data.
1 ★Why does it keep screwing with my WiFi??? It's not even included in the available permissions, but if you look deeper it connects and disconnects from WiFi and views your WiFi connection. I have woken up several morning having my wi-fi been turned on by Textra when I don't even use my WiFi at all!! I don't appreciate your sneakyness.
5 ★I highly recommend Textra! Been using it for nearly 5 years. On my old Galaxy Note 4, the Samsung messages app began to fail me. Had issues sending texts, and it was time consuming to scroll to find very old messages. Found this app and haven't looked back. Very customizable: You can change the colors of the app, text bubbles, & app icon. Other cool features: You can easily search for old texts, schedule messages to be sent at certain times, & send voice recorded messages. This app is worth it!
2 ★This app was working just fine but since the update on 5/2/21 it's been pure garbage. I can't forward a link from one person to another without the app either freezing or shutting down unexpectedly. Whatever you think you've fixed bravo to you but in the process, you've made a good app into a useless virtual paperweight.
3 ★Purchased the pro version of this year's ago as I loved the app so much. As others have stated, recent upgrades have either lost features or made things harder to do. My biggest issue is that when I send SMS messages to groups of people, not everyone gets the message, especially if there is an image attached. I thought it may be Android/Apple related, however, 1 person with an iPhone will get the message and 1 won't. They may then get 2 messages if I resend it again or they get the message later
3 ★Been using this app Pro version for years and loved it although I would like to see a one for one options equal to the Google messaging like PC messages link etc. My new phone with Android 11 will not pick up all the messages I restored in Textra. If I run the Google messages app I see all 700 messages. If I use the textra app I see 30. Please explain?
5 ★Got this the other day and love the features and ease of use , the one thing I'd suggest so far is give the choice of longer than 2 minute reminders , maybe 2-5 and 10 mins, I think standard android is 5 , I find it going off every 2 minutes gets a bit annoying if you cant get to your phone but can hear it , other than that I'll be purchasing for sure after a few more days of testing :) ** UPDATE after a year , had problems with notification badges not showing up on Textra after installing Nova Launcher , got in touch with help desk , they were great , all emails answered very quickly and got it working , still VERY happy with this app :D
1 ★Loved loved loved this app.... Not sure what happened but unable to send messages and having to tap to retry. Texting is essential to my work and I need to be able to rely on sending and receiving. I know it's not my service cause I can switch apps and it works.
5 ★I love this texting app I have been using it for about 6 months now and it is fast stable and fully customisable. I love it! June 2021 update: This app is still terrific in every way. Never disappoints! They do quality and feature updates that just sort themselves out, no problems. Thank you Textra!
