What's new
- Add a message: in a conversation, open the three-dot menu and choose Add message to write a message back in as received or sent, with its own date and time. Meant for putting back a message you deleted. Nothing is sent, and tapping the message shows an "Added" marker.
- Undo delete: after deleting a message, tap Undo to put it back with its edit history.
- Delivery reports: turn on Settings → Messaging → Delivery reports to ask the network to confirm each message you send was delivered. "Delivered" or "Not delivered" then shows under the message. Off by default; whether it works depends on your carrier.
Install
Download Textwright-0.3.0.apk below and open it on an Android 8.0+ phone. It installs over 0.2.1 and keeps your data.
Still on 0.2.0? That build was signed with a debug key, so uninstall it first. Uninstalling removes Textwright's saved originals of edited messages and its app lock; your messages stay in the phone's SMS store.
Good to know
- Delivery reports come from the mobile network, not the other phone. Some carriers do not send them, and a report can never tell you a message was read.
- Edits and added messages change the copy on your phone only.
- MMS, RCS and group messaging are not supported yet.
