That's a "favorite". You set or unset them by long pressing the conversation in the conversation list and choosing the appropriate menu item. I don't know of any other way to set them or remove them.

Long press on the conversation from the conversation list is where that option comes up but the appropriate menu item seems to be missing for group chats. So I guess it isn't currently possible.

What will happen when i move Yaata to system/app? or System/Priv-app?

Is this a good idea?

coz most built in messaging app installed in priv-app.
[Android Apps and Games] Duecetime:
Pass code

Hello, Idk if this feature has been requested or not but this app would be even better if it added an option to enable a pass code to get to the hidden conversations. As of right now, all you have to do to see the hidden conversations is to long press the compose button which seems a little too easy to be done by accident. Adding a pass code would ensure any accidental long presses wouldn't automatically lead to a treasure trove of confidential conversations. This feature alone would be enough to make me contribute and donate to the app a second time!
[Android Apps and Games] KruseLudsMobile:
Reach out to the Dev. But you probably won't get a reply...

Hi, I wanted to ask if anyone has encountered problems with the notification LED. I think I have set all the options related to the LED in the correct way, but unfortunately, when messages arrive, it will not light up.

If you have any suggestions to solve the problem I thank you in advance.

The app is installed on Xiaomi Mi5 with Androit 7.0

I hope the message is understandable as translated with Google translator.

How can I have the same color background /theme for every conversation?
[Android Apps and Games] Razorsoup:
Do you mean the bubble colors or something else?
[Android Apps and Games] robdam1001:
The title bar, the color of the received text. I don't want different colors for each conversation. I would like and prefer one uniform color for all conversations. Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] Razorsoup:
All of those settings are going to be in the "look and feel" settings. In particular, you'll be looking to change anything set to "contact color" to whatever static color you would prefer. You'll also want to disable "Change Title Bar Color" in the "Conversations" section of those settings.
[Android Apps and Games] robdam1001:
THANKS! This did the trick for me: "You'll also want to disable "Change Title Bar Color" in the "Conversations" section of those settings."

So I see how to save a theme under GENERAL but how do you restore a theme? Also, is it possible to back up all other settings and restore them?
[Android Apps and Games] Razorsoup:
Look & Feel > General > Theme

When you tap theme, you should get a pop-up with your saved themes and a couple of defaults listed. Just tap the theme you want to load, back out of the settings and the theme should load.

Settings > 3-dot menu

There should be options to backup and restore your settings there.
[Android Apps and Games] robdam1001:

Unable to send picture to 2 recipients mms. Any idea?
[Android Apps and Games] KruseLudsMobile:
Under MMS settings on Yaata try to use the various options. Also check the people receiving the message, if they have iPhones it might be set to use iMessage only, your phone carrier or their phone carrier might have it set to not allow MMS, etc. Also try each of the above when using WiFi as well as when not using WiFi...

[MENTION=1474452]kajozord[/MENTION]: Hi! I really like your app and I'm still regularly using it ;) But - I've got a suggestion: could you add a slider to conversations? Now I've got a nice conversation which has over 4k messages and I can't run to the first message I wrote :D A slider like in contacts app (with bubble) would be cool.

PL: Chodzi po prostu o taki suwak jak w aplikacji kontaktów, czy innych nowych - przesuwasz po krawędzi ekranu i można łatwo dostać się na górę listy. Za dużo wiadomości mam żeby normalnie przesuwać palcem i dostać się na początek konwersacji ;) Dzięki!

to prohibit MMS generally?

Hello everyone.

In order not to have to read the many pages, can I generally disable MMS inside YAATA? I've just installed this app for a trial, because I got charged with Textra a groups SMS to 6 contacts as 6 MMS, which are not included in my tariff.

Best regards.

Hi! What about separate notifications for each SIM card? Is it possible to set it up?
[Android Apps and Games] dundee81:
It would be nice to see an option to choose a SIM card to make a call when you press the phone call button inside the conversation. The call should be make with this card which is used as default for this conversation. What do you think about that?
[Android Apps and Games] th86n2:
Hi Kajozord. Was looking for a highly customisable messaging app, and your Yaata app is the first one in a long list that is getting close to what I expect from a messaging app. :) Really nice work, quite impressive.

One thing too: while fooling around with your app to get to know it a little bit I accidentally deleted a conversation with the swipe gesture.

Is there any way to retreive it?

Thanks in advance! Tim

[Android Apps and Games] lexluthor:
How does the auto delete work exactly? I just switched Beck from Android messages which doesn't have an auto delete so some conversations are huge.

If I have yaata see to 200 max per conversation, when does the auto delete occur? When I open the app, when i go into a conversation or when I get/send a new message in that conversation?
[Android Apps and Games] P.Rabbit:
Hello.

I changed Android rom from android 7.1 to 8.1 as I did a clean install, before I backed up the Sms (about 16k) to run the backup I used the SuperBackup app.

When I replace backup the Sms, the stock app shows me all 16k Sms. When I open yaata, it only shows me part of the SMS.

What can I do to yaata showing me all Sms?

I've already touched the option "optimize the SMS database" and nothing ...

Thanks

Chathead only notification option working over S8 lockscreen?

Apologies if this has been posted elsewhere. Is it a known issue for Chathead to be the only working notification option to show over lockscreen? Would prefer pop-up but it only shows stock notification. I am using Stock VZW S8.
[Android Apps and Games] tpapa:
Yes. This has been reported many times. Despite that statement in the description of the app in the play store, the only option that works on lock screen is chathead unfortunately.
[Android Apps and Games] bnacl:
Okay thanks for the reply. Is there any way to get rid of the system notifications on the lockscreen to get rid of duplicates?
[Android Apps and Games] tpapa:
Not sure what you mean about duplicates but you can remove the system notification when a chathead is open in the Settings->Chatheads->Persistent notification in drawer switch.
[Android Apps and Games] bnacl:
I was referring to the android system notification on the lockscreen which appears as a duplicate with the chathead. Figured it out, you need to turn off show notifications on lockscreen for Yaata under Android ->Settings -> Notifications -> Yaata -> On lock screen -> Do not show notifications. Hope this helps someone out...

How about going open source?
[Android Apps and Games] rootlinux:
I don't think that is going to happen.

From my understanding there are options in here that will be paid only after it comes out of Alpha or Beta.

So far I think I will be buying it.

This is improving daily and the dev is listening to users.
[Android Apps and Games] Bretos:
I don't see how that would be an obstacle.

Free and paid version available via Google Play, but source code is also available, eg. via GitHub.

Who has the knowledge and skills can still compile on his own. Who wants to benefit to the app, buys it, or helps developing.

This solution would still enable dev to take some profit from publishing his app, and furthermore it would greatly improve security, code quality and overall awesomeness of the app..

Not only that, but also bugs would be easier to find and faster to patch.

Everyone benefits from opensource.

I'd like to know OP opinion on that!

Pozdrawiam ;)
[Android Apps and Games] kajozord:
For android apss open source does not work well . I've seen a few cases where apk few days after the upload on the Github was published by someone else in google play as his paid app. Look on competitive sms apps . Some devs do not even mention, that his aps bases on AOSP sources. My application was created from scratch only by me.

Maybe someday I will make YAATA open source.

Now I have to go to sleep, because tomorrow I have to take the codility test to NSN. Keep your fingers crossed:).

Pozdrawiam:)
[Android Apps and Games] Bretos:
Well, that is really a shame that open sourcing YAATA isn't something we can see happening soon. Hope one day it will be libre software - this will be the day I install and try YAATA.

Closed source apps doesn't really earn my trust, especially with such things as texts and texting overall. I like them to be secure, which is never the case with closed sources.

Anyway, let's hope that one day YAATA will proudly announce that they went opensource, eg. like Xabber.

Until then I'll stick with AOSP messaging app.

[Android Apps and Games] zelendel:
Well that is your choice but bot sms app is fully open source. Even the aosp one uses some closed sourced code for the CDMA devices as some of there code that interacts with the network is closed sourced. This is why apps always have issues with sprint and Verizon.
[Android Apps and Games] Mikanoshi:
Only if paid version has additional functionality that is not there in sources. Otherwise you'll just help to distribute your app for free all over the internet and it will be the same as free app with donations :)

And if you have "the knowledge and skills", you can decompile any app on your own and conduct a security audit.
[Android Apps and Games] PhilDX:
I use NilS Widget to display notifications on my home and lock screens. I like it because it captures every notification and I can tap on them to open the corresponding app. this works for every app I use (Gmail, AOSP Mms, Textra, TheWeatherChannel, etc), if I tap on the notification the corresponding app opens. it does not work for YAATA though, when I tap on a YAATA notification in NiLS Widget, nothing happens, it's as though YAATA is missing an "intent" or something. any one else notice this?
[Android Apps and Games] Zisworg:
Hey Kajo,

Thanks for the latest updates, but there's still one issue onto your code: I guess you're not pointing to the correct string, fifth element, in your contextual menu, into a conversation.

[Android Apps and Games] rootlinux:
An app being open source doesn't mean it is more secure. How many apps do you use that are open source or closed? Saying you won't use it till it goes open sounds more like you won't use it at all. Sounds more like you want someone else to take the source and make a free version. We all love free stuff but I will say the app deserves respect as does the dev. Not many devs listen to the users and spend hours giving us what we want.

All I can advise is if you don't trust it then don't use it. You are free to take it or leave it. Personally I will take it and give mad props to this generous dev.

There are a few devs that I know that bend over backwards for us.

Tao is one of them making Fast for Facebook. People like this are hard to come by. I can't ever see a reason to down a dev that is honestly trying to make a great app for the users.

You may not have meant any disrespect but it came off that way to me.

I don't mean this as a flame to anyone.

If you like something use it. If you don't like it then don't use it. Trying to make users think an app isn't secure is crazy unless you have knowledge that it isn't.

There are ways to test it if you know how.

When composing a new message and entering the recipient's name a drop down list of the person's numbers is shown. The descriptions that are shown below the number such as home, work, etc. are mixed up.

For example a person has the following numbers:

*31#04321567890 (Mobile)

04321 567890 (Text)

*31#01234123456 (Home)

The drop down list has the wrong description below each number.

Instead of thanking the developer who listens to every request for making the app spending his valuable time to good of others, you post such unwanted posts to clutter the thread.

As much as I possibly can.

Why so? I'd be sooo glad to be able to contribute money or my own work to make YAATA even better(If only that's possible).

Guys, I did not want to offend anyone. If I did - I sincerly apologize. That was not my intention at any moment.

Trust me, I really respect anyone developing apps for people. Any app.

I did not want to offend anyone.

Just as any of you, both developers and users, we all want our apps and software to be as good as it can. Why not make it?

Well, do you have the knowledge that it is? See next.

Yes, they are. But wouldn't such an audit be much easier seeing the source?

I do so because contributing is what I want to do. This was one of the reasons I asked for such thing. You can contribute in many ways you know...

I don't even know how could I comment it. All I wanted since my first post in this thread was a possibility to contribute and help too.

I am sorry if such things are cluttering for you.

All I wanted was to ask the dev if he was thinking about opensourcing the app. Now I know it's not really something he wants, and my question was answered.

This is not the place to discuss proprietary software vs open source software. Anyone who wants to continue the debate, please PM me.

I cannot stress it enough, I am sorry if anyone has felt offended. I sincerly apologize, that was never my intention.

Keep up the GOOD work I see everyone have been doing.

Have a nice day. ;)

Fast, smooth, reliable SMS/MMS app, currently my default on a HTC M8.

Only bug so far is that for some reason, I received one SMS twice....but it was an anomaly and was the only one over a few days. Can't seem to recreate it at all, so I'm thinking it's an issue on the network provider side.

Help me ;)

Hello,

It's been a long time since I try to ask you to increase the time to send but yataa.sms@gmail.com don't work.

Indeed, 5 seconds is too little for me.

The ideal would be to customize it (in seconds), but adding 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30 for example, it would be very good.

I'm a paid user (DanVkx at gmail) and very happy with Yataa (except for its slow first access (on opening app) to my database which contains 304 conversations and more than 9200 messages).

I would be really happy if you could increase the delay of sending and, if possible, improve the indexing of messages...

Very cordially,

Daniel
[Android Apps and Games] zelendel:
With that many messages you will always get slow down. That's just the way it works. Android is not made to keep that many messages in the data base. The more you get the longer it will take.
[Android Apps and Games] KruseLudsMobile:
Don't worry Daniel. Just make a gazillion copies of the photos on your phone until you only have 1gb left and then the messaging will be nice and slow!

"Slow" indexing

Hi ;)

Thanks for your reply.

Other apps like "Messagerie" (original app), Mood or other hazve not that problem.

But Yataa do that only all time on start the app... If the app is already started, no problem. Or if I set a contact in "Favorites" and other operation (refresh indexing).

I think it's beter so, but maybe the other apps not refresh indexing then more risk of problems...

Regards.
[Android Apps and Games] zelendel:
Here is the thing. Not all messaging apps use the same data base files. So when you change apps issues can happen. It's most likely the other apps are not refreshing as you said. I have found that 2500 seems to be the point for most apps.

---------- Post added at 11:56 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:23 AM ----------

You can't possibly say with phones as powerful as computers that its OK if they are slow with loading a bunch of bits. They are just badly optimized apps.

The SMS database is shared among apps (mmssms.db) and if one app uses its own database and is still slow then it's worse.
[Android Apps and Games] zelendel:
I can after all the years of testing.

Even high end computers can slow down with large files. Also there is a very big difference between mobile and computer parts. They don't work the same.

Many apps use their own databases which can cause others to slow down. Mainly if you are restoring sms/mms from other devices or rom flashes.
