a little bit out of the topic but here it is:

Block? I use Personal DNS Filter for blocking and also it has a logging feature like:

I use this consolidated hosts file from this Github repo for blocking.

The red xs are the blocked and the green checks are the allowed (not in the hosts file).

Note: I am not rooted so I use that VPN hosts blocker but if not, AdAway!

Another bug in most recent beta's:

Whe inside a conversation the ringtone volume goes WAY up......OUCH!
[Android Apps and Games] duckredbeard:
What happened to colorized notification icons? That feature was quite useful for me!
[Android Apps and Games] ballasa:
Google removed that ability. I didn't check back to see which posts covered this, but it was discussed in the forum before. You can try searching for it. Just trying to let you know quickly.
[Android Apps and Games] :
Can anyone else confirm this?
[Android Apps and Games] MJPollard:
If you want this feature back, you'll have to downgrade to version 1.38. A link to the APK for this version is in a post on this page or the previous one. (And yes, Google's reasoning behind this is complete and utter horses**t. There's absolutely no reason why colored icons can't be in the status bar, other than laziness and stupidity on Google's part.)

Hello [MENTION=1474452]kajozord[/MENTION],

when I open a picture and I hit share (e. g. to open it as an attachment to my FairEmail app), I get several contacts shown from YAATA in the direct share menu.

I don't want that, it is enough, that one YAATA app icon is shown.

Is there a way to deactivate this? If not, could you please add a toggle?

--------

In general: Does someone know, how to deactivate the direct share menu fully? Up to Android (LineageOS) 8.1 it worked with this, but unfortunately it doesn't work for me with android Pie anymore.

Portrait orientation for MMS is broken on LG G7 thinq

Anyone else having issues trying to sent photos taken in portrait mode?

I just upgraded from a samsung A5 which was fine, and this phone seems to work fine with the stock app and several other SMS/MMS apps I've tested..
[Android Apps and Games] :
This has been covered a lot

---------- Post added at 07:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:40 PM ----------
[Android Apps and Games] Blazemonkey:
Ok, I guess I can assume that the developer has abandoned or had no intention of resolving this. I can only leave a bad review and move on to something else at this point.

Thanks!

Conversing list not deleting

After the latest update, my conversations won't delete. The actual conversations will delete, but the contact name and header will still be on the list. Is anyone else having this issue, and/or know how to fix it? I have been through every setting, and cannot figure it out.
[Android Apps and Games] MJPollard:
Revert back to 1.38. The current version seems to have more bugs than an etymology lab. [emoji20]
[Android Apps and Games] thuggugh:
Will try that, thanks for the info!
[Android Apps and Games] :
I would say this is app is about to be dead... The dev seems nonexistent lately and never comes in to even offer solutions or give updates.

Since it's a paid app I would assume my criticism is warrented...but there are major flaws to this app
[Android Apps and Games] ballasa:
I will definitely be missing YAATA. I've loved this app for years and I don't think any other communication app comes close to offering the phenomenal customizations Kajo provided. I get it can't last forever. I wish I knew coding so it wouldn't die. I've forced myself to accept Mood as a very distant 2nd.
[Android Apps and Games] tpapa:
After a flurry of activity last month there has been a lot of silence. I'm not ready to say the app is dead since I thought that before and it's come back to life. Just hoping the dev has not given up. Kajo can we expect any updates in the near future?
[Android Apps and Games] zelendel:
Many devs keep, working on projects but stop coming to xda other then to post updates. If that. Just like nova launcher. It started here and now the dev doesn't even look at the thread. And the temhe reason for that is simple.
[Android Apps and Games] dancrow:
Can't compare this dev with nova launcher's one. Nova has a discord channel to talks and listens to the users. This dev has no channel to take user voice into consideration
[Android Apps and Games] zelendel:
And he doesn't he talk there. Others in his company do.

Talking to users is something people have taken for granted. Normally devs don't talk to users at all.

This dev sees the posts. Just because he doesn't reply ( othing says he needs to) doesn't mean anything really.

Also just because the app has not had an update in a while doesn't mean anything. Many apps don't see updates for long times. The best music player on Android didn't see an update for 2 years because wit didn't need one.
[Android Apps and Games] tpapa:
This app has bugs that need fixing.
[Android Apps and Games] zelendel:
I can't say I have seen a single issue. Also it might ot be the app but the device. Mainly as you are using a Samsung device. Which is known to make 3rd party apps not work as well do to the changes in their distro.
[Android Apps and Games] tpapa:
Perhaps these are just device (Samsung Note 8) specific but here are some of the issues I have:

Notification channels that grow infinitely and don't allow me to properly manage my notifications

Pictures taken in portrait mode send in landscape mode.

Web previews in mms group chats don't work.

Import of v-cards is hit-or-miss

I can't respond directly to notifications on my gear S3 watch. Tells me to check phone.
[Android Apps and Games] zelendel:
The watch will only work with samsung messaging by design of Samsung. It works fine with samsung app due to it being programmed to. Yatta uses aosp as a code base and your watch uses tizen which only really works with other Samsung products.

Samsung notifications channels code is different then Googles Android so that could be the issues there.

The picture issue might be due to samsung camera. Try a different camera.

VCards are always hit or miss. Even aosp messaging doesn't support it.

Can't say about web previews. I turn them off. I have rcs with att but shut them off anyway.
[Android Apps and Games] tpapa:
Textra, QKSMS, Android Messages, Pulse all work with my watch. By work I mean allow for a direct reply from the watch. Only YAATA doesn't.
[Android Apps and Games] zelendel:
None of them use aosp code. Textra uses its own data base files. All the others take into account the Samsung adk. Which Yaata doesnt
[Android Apps and Games] yrp888:
Send failures are rare for me so I don't bother looking. However, sometimes they do occur and it's only until I look at the phone maybe hours later I realise the message hasn't gone. This causes some frustration as I might be driving, can't look at the phone, and get cranky with the Mrs for not responding when it's actually my fault!

[MENTION=1474452]kajozord[/MENTION] .. Are there plans to implement an auto-retry for failed messages, up to X times, then hard fail? If not, can I ask this be added to the wishlist?
[Android Apps and Games] taospirit:
Hi,

since Pie update of my Galaxy S8+, i don't have MMS notification anymore... :( .

so i must switch to another smsmms app., do U know one with bubble notifications like yaata?
[Android Apps and Games] Razorsoup:
Not sure about the other issues you listed since I've basically given up on Yaata at this point, but the notification channels issue also happens on my LG G6.
[Android Apps and Games] tweak4:
I asked about this a couple times over the last few months and never heard anything back. It seems like it should be a simple fix, especially since it used to work correctly, but the lack of acknowledgement of this or any other recent issue makes me think this project is really and truly dead.

I've finally opted to bail and switch to a different app- just need to figure out which one- Google Messages has a nice web interface built in, but there appears to be zero customization in the current version.
[Android Apps and Games] :
If you find something good report here....I only stay because of the speakerphone mode....but the other issues are almost too much to stay on

I also cant stand an app that forces you to have avatars in the message lists.....so the options are limited
[Android Apps and Games] chazall1:
I have been using this app from Day one.

I have tried the current Betas not somthing that the apt once was.

I have been running Yaata 1.38 and all is great.

I get frustrated every morning going into TB and remove Yaata from the play store.

I am currently trying out Textra SMS.

So far no issues here.

Change is a hard thing,

Good luck
[Android Apps and Games] MJPollard:
I really, really want to stay with YAATA, but I can't any longer. The bugs and issues have finally taken their toll on my patience, and the recent updates only seem to be making things worse. I'm currently trying out Mood (because it has a "secret" mode, which is the equivalent of YAATA's hidden conversations feature), and if I'm satisfied, I'll be archiving YAATA in my TiBu backup directory. I had a good run with YAATA and gave it every chance, but it's time to move on. :crying:
[Android Apps and Games] :
Does mood allow you to hide avatars?
[Android Apps and Games] JBeXX:
Yes, you can hide sender and/or receiver avatar in Mood.

I've also had to move over to it. It takes some tweaking but Mood seems to have all or most of Yaata's features once you learn all the settings.
[Android Apps and Games] :
Thanks.... But not speaker phone right?
[Android Apps and Games] JBeXX:
I don't think so no. I never used that feature so I haven't looked for it. But I don't think Mood has that unfortunately.
[Android Apps and Games] :
I see you can hide avatars in chat but not message list?
[Android Apps and Games] JBeXX:
Yes, you're right. I thought you meant in a chat. Apologies. I think you only have a choice of 2 sizes in the message list.

I don't want to derail this thread as dead as this might seem, so feel free to hit me up on PM if you have more Mood questions. I'm no pro or anything but I've been moved over to it for quite a while now. Good luck!
[Android Apps and Games] :
Seems YAATA is dead...Yet is still allowing people to purchase it in Google Play. Not sure how "cool" that is.
[Android Apps and Games] marciozomb13:
You will see non working apps from 2014 there too, so not a problem. It works for many. Sad but true.
[Android Apps and Games] Dude+:
[MENTION=1474452]kajozord[/MENTION] - his last post was early May and the last update was end of May. That's pretty good isn't it?
[Android Apps and Games] chazall1:
Same here.
[Android Apps and Games] MJPollard:
YAATA might not actually be dead, but it definitely does appear to be on life support. Each new release after version 1.38 seems to cause as many problems as it fixes, and some long-standing issues (like the MMS issues that have plagued this app for a long time) are still unresolved. Kajozord definitely seems to have a lot of things going on in his personal life that's affecting his ability to maintain the app, and I don't fault him for that in any way (life happens, after all), but it still means that YAATA isn't getting the attention it needs and deserves. I've switched to Mood Messenger for my SMS/MMS needs, as it's feature-rich and includes some things that I like in YAATA, but I will still be keeping my eye on YAATA (which I've archived via Titanium Backup) and will hopefully return to it if/when things with it have improved.
[Android Apps and Games] Laicure:
I really like YAATA and currently using it.

I hope it does not get abandoned.

I don't mind the MMS bug (if there is?) as I do not ever used MMS because internet is just around (messenger, whatsup and such).

I hope YAATA go open-source before the developer abandon the project 'cause why not, YAATA is <3
[Android Apps and Games] KruseLudsMobile:
It was pulled from the play store a couple of months back and I was able to find the developer and reach out to him - he replied it'll be back up soon and the same day it was put back up. So I wouldn't worry to much... :)

[Android Apps and Games] :
We are talking about the fact that the updates have major bugs in them and the apk hasnt been updated in over a month. I think he is bailing...
[Android Apps and Games] ballasa:
I'm hoping that he's out of pocket for a long time because major problems can take major time to solve. I'm really really hoping ?
[Android Apps and Games] Ncruze:
I knew it! So this app is dead! ?

I've had mood and Textra. This one has so many features.
[Android Apps and Games] Barburo:
Just a small thing. I use Nova Launcher. I created an individual icon for my main contact. There's something about the icon that Nova has difficulty with. Sometimes it's the same size as all the other icons other times it's huge. Going into Nova settings and making slight adjustments to icon size gets it back on on side again but after a few uses the icon is back to being huge again.

---------- Post added at 03:30 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:18 AM ----------

I should have mentioned I'm using a Galaxy S8 updated to the latest version of Android. The problem I'm referring to is the shortcut icon that gets created for an individual user.
[Android Apps and Games] Tatsch:
[MENTION=9859895]Barburo[/MENTION] That's weird. But plwase be aware, that this is not a thread about Nova Launcher, but YAATA SMS app.

BTW:

I moved to QKSMS. No ads, no data tracking. Fine app.
[Android Apps and Games] Barburo:
The shortcut icon is created by the Yaata app. There's something about it that Nova launcher doesn't like - hence the odd sizing problem. It still works ok.
[Android Apps and Games] :
Don't bother.... Too. Many bugs... Get a refund if bought it. DEV not supporting this since May
[Android Apps and Games] zoltan78:
Install Mood sms is much more better.
[Android Apps and Games] Tatsch:
[MENTION=2301999]zoltan78[/MENTION] Many people used YAATA, bc there was no data tracking.

You suggest mood, which is fully stuffed with data tracking:

AccountKit, Batch, Cuebiq, Facebook Analytics, Facebook Login, Facebook Places, Facebook Share, Google Analytics, Google CrashLytics, Google Firebase Analytics

So much tracking - just to text a SMS? ;)
[Android Apps and Games] MJPollard:
YAATA may not have any data tracking, but it also hasn't been updated in a while (and the last few updates broke as many things as they fixed), the author seems to be MIA, and there are serious, long-standing bugs (mostly concerning MMS) that still haven't been addressed. I'll wager that most people give more of a f**k about having a functional, updated app than whether or not their app has data tracking in it.
[Android Apps and Games] Tatsch:
So why not using a "functional, updated" app without data tracking...?

That's my claim to an app, after having left YAATA.
[Android Apps and Games] KruseLudsMobile:

[Android Apps and Games] zelendel:
If the app, works (as it does flawlessly for many of us) there is no need for support. Being updated all the time would push me away from an app.

So let people use what they want. Hell most of my apps have not been updated in over a year and many have updates that I will most likely not even do until they add something that is important.
[Android Apps and Games] Tatsch:
My personal ranking - now without YAATA:

1. QKSMS (best from f-droid.org)

2. Pulse

3. Textra (but sends too much data from phone to the world)

4. Mood (but sends too much data from phone to the world)

5. Handcent (but sends too much data from phone to the world)
[Android Apps and Games] :
I like Handcent too...what do you mean sends too much data....

Does QKSMS allow you to not use contact Avatars in list?
[Android Apps and Games] Tatsch:
Too much unwanted data tracking in background.

QKSMS always uses contact icons or images.

You mean "chat heads" like FB Messenger? Yeah, Mood has that although they call it "head notifications".

Yaata gives fake delivery report on receiver phone (my other mobile) while the mobile is powered off.
[Android Apps and Games] gmm6797:
Typically the delivery receipt means that the network accepted the text, not that the receiver as received nor viewed it
[Android Apps and Games] Asad.Aziz:
When I send SMS using Textra, it gives delivery report only after I have powered on the receiver phone and received the SMS using same network.

Wear OS Notifications

I used to receive notifications from Yaata on my Wear OS SmartWatch. Has this feature been removed from the Yaata app?
[Android Apps and Games] Asad.Aziz:
I am using both Yaata and Textra on same phone same network. Textra gives actual delivery reports and Yaata gives fake delivery report. I sent SMS using both apps on my other phone which was powered off. Textra gave delivered report ONLY when I powered on the other phone and received the SMS. Yaata instantly gave delivery report despite the fact that receiver phone was powered off and no SMS was received.
[Android Apps and Games] zelendel:
Textra also uses its own sms database, unlike YAATA That uses the stock dB files. It does make you wonder how thzt happens as only your carrier has that info unless there are other commands sent attached to the text.

To be honest most people turn them off anyway. So not really a concern

Owner avatar photo

Can i put to the owner avatar my photo? Cause i can't find the way .... and if i can see new messages in lockscreen? I've given all the permitions needed.

Thanks a lot.
[Android Apps and Games] Bio69:
Hello ;)

I have a big problem with Yaata ...

Indeed, the notifications of sending and receiving by the recipient work, but the notifications of receipt do not work at all.

I have a Xiaomi Pocophone F1 on Android 9 and MIUI Global 10.3.7 Stable.

I watched Yaata's and MIUI's settings for Yaata and I can not see anything wrong, except that for Yaata's notifications in MIUU, the "Sound" setting is missing (see screenshot).

Maybe the problem comes from there and Yaata should be corrected as in Battery Notifier Pro BT? (see screenshot)

Best regards :)

Daniel
[Android Apps and Games] zelendel:
Read receipts don't wor**** that in sms based apps. That is a data based messaging feature a dnd a feature of rcs.

MIUI is known for causing issues with 3rd party apps. It's the reason most developers here block Xiaomi devices from getting their apps to begin with.
[Android Apps and Games] grossdm:
May I ask if you have been able to continue using the same older version of YAATA (or a different, but similar vintage)?

I know this is an old post, but I am on a new phone now - I jumped from Kit Kat to Pie.

TIA, and I hope you're doing well.

Doug
[Android Apps and Games] Laicure:
I just totally say no, nope, never to Chinese phones.

anyway, any alternative to YATAA?

I mean, it is perfectly fine for me but I don't mind switching.

Preferably, not those apps that connects too much to the internet.

Keeping it basic, plain, and simple, if possible.

Only plain sms will do.
[Android Apps and Games] Bio69:
Hello :)

I forgot to say that it's only the sound notifications for incoming SMS that does not work. All other notifications work for incoming, sending and received outgoing SMS, including the sound for notifications sending and received outgoing SMS ...

Best regards ;)
[Android Apps and Games] Tatsch:
Be aware that development of YAATA seems to be stopped. There is no bug fixing anymore.

I suggest moving to similar apps like e.g. "QKSMS".
[Android Apps and Games] zelendel:
Yes I have kept using the same version I was. I do not suffer from FOMO, So as long as it works then I have no issue sticking with it and unless the apis change then it will keep working.
[Android Apps and Games] Bio69:
Hi :)

Is this true :( or just a guess?

Best regards ;)
[Android Apps and Games] Tatsch:
Just seeing what's going on here. ;)
[Android Apps and Games] gmm6797:
That is a rather broad assumption on your part. Just like the rest of us, I am sure [MENTION=1474452]kajozord[/MENTION] has other things going on, but he always comes back.

Do read the thread, he often has life events and then comes back.

The app is stable, dont jump to conclusions you know nothing about
[Android Apps and Games] Tatsch:
Read this thread, there are several bugs mentioned.

If he is busy or has more important life events, he probably would have written a short message to clarify. But there was and is no communication on his side.

So I hope he's well. But how long you expect from users to wait till bugs will be fixed? A month, a year? Without any sign if development?
[Android Apps and Games] tpapa:
6 months without a meaningful update or communications from the developer certainly qualifies in my book as "development seems to have stopped".

[Android Apps and Games] dancrow:
Nothing significant

With this latest beta version, can't see all the conversations (made it with chat feature active) from Samsung message application. View attachment 4845457
[Android Apps and Games] Razorsoup:
You mean RCS messages? That's not too surprising. I'm hoping this newest beta fixes the mms issues. I had given up hope on Yaata ever being usable again but I'd be happy to be wrong.
[Android Apps and Games] dancrow:
Is not a MMS message. I have a Galaxy Note 9 and all messages sent with blue background color are not listed in yaata. I'm not sure what RCS message is. I've just noticed that some messages appears with green background and other with blue, depends on contract I send the message. Some of the contacts they have a blue dot in Samsung message application.
[Android Apps and Games] tpapa:
Not sure what "fixes" were made but one of my big issues, being able to reply to a message on my gear S3 watch seems to be fixed!
