Does anyone know of an open-source alternative to Google’s “Messages” app, which takes care of SMS/text messages on my phone?

I was looking for open-source alternatives on PlayStore and F-Droid but can’t really find anything – most apps seem to target some extra purpose than simply handling SMSs.

(Edit: I’d like to stay away from the “Simple Mobile Tools” line because I don’t know if it’s open source, and I don’t like the way they promoted some apps – forcing users to update to pro and similar.)

Cheers!

    Thank you for the heads-up. I’ve installed it and for now it’s working OK. To be honest I don’t mind that’s unmaintained, if it works (I still use a 10-year old timer app that is just perfect for me, never found the like again).

      I know what you mean. I’ve been using a reminder app called “recurrence” that is abandoned and it looks like its from the android 7 days. When you find something that fits the need just right it takes more than lack of updates to prompt a move to something else. Aside from if there are security issues that aren’t getting patched.
