With picture size and quality both set to Auto, Yaata resizes pictures to 768×1024 when I send them resulting in a picture way below the size limit set for MMS. I would expect the picture to only be resized if necessary to meet that limit and even then not to the extreme point that Yaata is doing. With a size limit of 5MB set, Yaata is resizing the picture to about 500kB.

For comparison, Textra does not have this same issue. Sending the same picture through Textra results in the picture remaining the same size. So it's not my carrier doing the resizing.

[Android Apps and Games] tpapa:
Thanks! I noticed it was implemented in latest build!

Do you have a strong for or against opinion on the shaped bubbles for grouped messages (similar to Android Messages, FB Messenger, Kik)?? Really not super useful but kind of nice as a visual cue to keep messages that came in or went out within a particular time together.
[Android Apps and Games] Nastrahl:
Since it's impossible to configure with official nor a lot of other apps that are working well with MMS quality, can you give me an insight about how to find the right setup?

Yeah, and even if you choose a given size.

When I select 2560 or says "size too big" when choosing a picture. How does it know?

When on auto but a given size, it should keep the given size and then decrease quality.

If all the options are manually given it should import the picture with the given parameters and let the carrier reject it or not on send.

---------- Post added at 09:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:08 AM ----------

Since the last update I noticed that there's more blank space in the bubbles around the texts (when using not rounded bubbles). Can you fix it?

Thanks

Dual sim

Concerning the dual sim, Yaata proposes by default for the new messages the last sim used. This is a risk of error when alternating professional and personal conversations. Would it be possible to recall the sim used during the last exchange of the current conversation, like Textra?

Great app, have to come back always.

One small request: is it possible to change the way we choose the time and date for schedule a message, with the modern android oreo interface?

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] w2o4ts:
My first post in this thread and let me start by congratulating the dev - I believe this to be indeed the best SMS app available at the moment!

Only one thing missing - and for me it has been enough to keep me away from Yaata all this time, in the hope it might be fixed in some future release; since it hasn't, let me post it as a feature request.

A feature considered indispensable for users with non-Latin alphabet languages is the "strip diacritics" (thankfully present in Yaata), that effectively converts Unicode text to the 7-bit GSM 03.38 character set, allowing characters to occupy 1 byte each and utilise a SMS' full 160 available characters.

Unfortunately (as confirmed in post #600), this applies only when unicode text exceeds 70 (real) characters - in which case it is about to spill over to 2 -concatenated- messages.

This, unfortunately, is not convenient for all users.

So, here comes the enhancement request: :)

Could you possibly make this configurable, so the user can choose whether to apply the conversion from the first character, or -as it is now- when the message's capacity is about to be exceeded?

Or, to keep it simple, just switch the default behaviour to converting from the first character?

Another important (from my viewpoint, at least) enhancement would be to store the converted (i.e. with stripped, capital GSM 03.38 chararters) message as Sent, and not in its original form, with lower case, diacritics and all that (which is the case now).

Could you possibly look into that?

Thanks in advance!
[Android Apps and Games] kajozord:
In summary, you want as a option additional strip diacratics mode, "always strip diacratics symbols", not like now strip only when is needed?

Another option is to add ability to save message in striped mode, not in original form?

Do you use Greek alphabet? Converting in that alphabet to non utf charset probably (as I remember) converts all letter to lower case.
[Android Apps and Games] w2o4ts:
Thanks for responding!

That's correct, yes.

Yes, so the user can see what it was they actually sent.

I do, yes. And it is actually converted to upper case. Seems to work pretty well too, in YAATA.

[MENTION=1474452]kajozord[/MENTION] - do you have any insight on what settings to use to improve the picture quality in Yaata? I would much rather use Yaata if I can resolve this situation.
[Android Apps and Games] kajozord:
In mms /advanced settings change quality to 100 and size to 1600 or higher.
[Android Apps and Games] Nastrahl:
It says "file too big" right after choosing the picture.
[Android Apps and Games] kajozord:
Change mms size limit to no limit, then change picture size and quality, but if you choose too high values picture will be too big and your carrier will reject your message.
[Android Apps and Games] Nastrahl:
I wondered... It says "file too big" on import not on send ; is this normal?
[Android Apps and Games] mv522:
Will you take a look how Textra operates it's MMS quality.

I've been using this messaging app for a little over a month now and I'm very impressed! I love all the customization. Well worth the couple of bucks. It's also still very snappy and fast, unlike Handcent, which I did like as well.

[Android Apps and Games] Basher_52:
Since I "need" schedule and reminder I just paid for premium, now let's see how it works :D

Seems to do as it says, great work :D

One thing that I miss since my eye sight ain't that good and that I normally is not using glasses,

is instead of going to settings to change font size(as I can't see to do that without glasses :p )

is to be able to use the 2-finger method to size up and/or down. Had that before I blew this S5 and in with Oreo.

Oh btw, just wanna know, if/when I upgrade to a newer phone, a new license of this required?

Any progress in adding delete option without undo in standard android notification?
[Android Apps and Games] Pater Draco:
That post was like 4 years ago. That option has come and gone already. Even though many wish it would come back.
[Android Apps and Games] bgxx:
In my opinion, Yaata is by far the best text messaging application in Android. With this thought, I have installed and even purchased this application. Then, some time later, I have deleted the application just because of the annoying delay in message deleting. Of course deletion with undo option may be a good idea, but such a nice application with lots of customizations must also have an option "directly delete message without confirmation and/or undo delay" as in other sms apps.

Maybe another customization would be an option to disable/remove "silent mode button". It is always possible to forget to re-enable notifications which may be really a problem. Therefore, it would be good to have the option to disable/remove "silent button" or maybe an additional option "silence with timer".

Sorry for my bad English.

With my best regards.
[Android Apps and Games] w2o4ts:
The latest version uploaded to the Play Store contains additional configurability for the "strip diacritics" option in SMS, i.e. the capability to convert unicode characters to the 7-bit GSM 03.38 character set (intended for SMS) and let the user enjoy the full 160 chars per message (that the protocol allows), even for languages that employ non-latin characters / symbols.

The new config options allow the feature to behave in a much more uniform way, improving the app's usability in such cases.

A BIG thanks to kajozord for providing this enhancement (and indeed as quickly as he did)!
[Android Apps and Games] patrickdrd:
besides the strip diactritics option there's a new option to copy confirmation codes from the notification,

I press delete on these messages and so I would like an option to disable the undo option on that too
[Android Apps and Games] bgxx:
With the latest update (I'm not sure, maybe also in the previous versions), I've noticed the same bug in notification actions too. Not with the all messages, but with the some messages containing some numbers and text (for example: "12346 Code") an additional action pop-up is shown on the system notifications or head-ups like "COPY 123...".

As I said in my previous message too, I agree that it would be very nice to have the option "direct delete without undo and delay" in notification actions.
[Android Apps and Games] bilin95:
Hi,

I have a problem with some messages sent . They don't leave and stay scheduled whitout date. And no error notification too.
[Android Apps and Games] bgxx:
Sorry, I thought that the option "COPY.." in notification actions is a bug. As far as I understand from the "what's new" note below, it is intentional, not a bug.

"* Added: Ability to copy confirmation code directly from notification"

In any case, that option is interesting but also it may be confusing, therefore, there must be an option to enable/disable that in the notification actions. So, I think it would be nice to add some extra options in the notification actions, like this option (copy code enable/disable) and like the option "direct delete without undo and delay" which I mentioned previously.

Best regards.
[Android Apps and Games] kajozord:

I'm having a strange issue. If I open a conversation from my wife, I can see the MMS thumbnails just fine. When I try to click on one to view the picture, nothing happens. The only way I can view the picture is to download it and view it from the gallery. The strange thing is, if I view another conversation where someone with an iPhone sent me a picture, I can click and view those just fine. My wife also has an Android. Not sure if that is just a coincidence but I figured I'd mention it. Any ideas on what could be causing this?

Edit: I just found that if I click on the last picture she sent, I can scroll left and see previous pictures but I can't click on the one I want individually. It's almost as if it's presenting them in a slideshow rather than separate messages. Any way to change that?

To search one conversation, tap the message count in the conversation. (Not really intuitive)
[Android Apps and Games] justthefacts:
The magnifying glass pops up the search field but doesn't give any search results. it justs doesn't do anything. Maybe there is something in the settings needs to get this activated?

Group (MMS) issue

I just downloaded and have begun to use Yaata. Works great except I'm having an issue with group messaging.

- Initally group messages working fine, but as people start replying the messages get out of order. The reply just coming in is tagged or attributed to the previous reply. Mark sends a message. Joe replies. Then Bob replies. Joe's message now looks like it was sent by Bob and Bob's message is duplicated. Weird and really a deal killer for this app.

I have 2 other SMS apps on my phone (Textra and Pulse) and both of these work fine.

a few questions

I just started using YAATA and really like it so far. I have a few questions, however.

1) Is there a YAATA wiki somewhere?

2) The filter function in a conversation doesn't seem to do anything. The list of filters pop up when I touch the icon, but nothing changes when I select a filter. When I touch the title bar to "filter by text message," I get the same result (which is no change).

3) What do the small, gray icons along the right side mean in the conversation list? For instance, all of my conversations have calendar icons and one has an exclamation point. I assumed the exclamation point was that there were unsent messages, but I can't filter for "not sent" as mentioned in #2 above. I figured out the star and pin icons.

4) Can I change a contact color?

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] zelendel:
Im not sure how this works where you live but most people in the states turn this off. Also it is not really something that can be relied upon with sms as it requires the carrier to monitor and report back. Most people in the states find this as an invasion of privacy.
[Android Apps and Games] patrickdrd:
in my country it's working, so I wish it would work in yaata too, but in yaata the delivery was reported as soon as I sent the message and

it was updated some minutes later when the recipient actually delivered
[Android Apps and Games] zelendel:
You seem to think that sms workd like a data based messaging service. IT doesnt. The report you get is when the carrier sends it to the person. Not when the person actually gets it.

IT wont work until RCS finishes out and even then studies show that this feature is turned off by 80% of users. Along with things like typing notifications and last seen status.

---------- Post added at 06:23 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:15 AM ----------

The thing is SMS doesnt work like that. You can look it up. What you see is the carrier saying it was sent. Not that they really got it. This needs RCS to work properly with SMS but from the studies shown 80% of people turn this off along with things like last seen and typing notifications. So to be honest I wouldnt but much faith in things like this.
[Android Apps and Games] patrickdrd:
I don't think you can turn it off in my country
[Android Apps and Games] zelendel:
You can in most apps. As that is where it is controled Even Yaata has the option to turn it off. Also its not what you think. SMS doesnt work with delivery notices. Only when the carrier sends. Carriers have been doing it this way for decades. With RCS it is supposed to change. But it wont change much. People will still disable things like this so I wouldnt count on them much.
[Android Apps and Games] Tore Karlsen:
Disabling received notifications on your device doesnʼt prevent others from getting received notifications when they send messages to you. (Possible exception in the US).

I donʼt think the SMS protocol includes a completed confirmation from the receiving device, and the received notification is therefore not 100% reliable. But if the network quality is good in your place, I would consider it quite useful, anyway.

If received notifications work with other SMS apps, itʼs possibly a device specific bug in YAATA.

If you post your device model and Android version, it may be possible to fix.
[Android Apps and Games] zelendel:
Yes it does. If you shut it off and the other person still gets notified then the app is broken and in violation of a fee laws as well as Google rules.

The SMS protocol doesn't support it. This is a data based Im platform that has been in use for 25 years or so.
[Android Apps and Games] Tore Karlsen:
Looks like most mobile network operators outside of the US violate US law and the Google rules, then.

Thatʼs not nice.
[Android Apps and Games] kajozord:
To clarify. Read reports are not supported in sms messages. Delivery reports are supported, but it's isn't commonly supported in US networks and it is nothing with legal issues, is rather lack of agreements between carriers in that matter. Even if your carrier supports delivery reports it may not work in YAATA due to Android doesn't deliver that information to YAATA (it may various between Android versions and manufactures) and probably is needed to do some workarounds and I haven't time and resources and possibilities to do this.

Android api various due to legal issues, but not in that case. For example on US phone there is possibility to get phone's user number by app, but it isn't possible on European phones. That number is needed to group chat to work (and mms on US networks). That's why european users needs to enter own phone number in settings if they want to use mms group chats.
[Android Apps and Games] spocko:
Similar issue here. I just tried Yaata for the first time. Pre-existing group message conversations are not displayed correctly in Yaata. Messages from me appear to be from others, or show out of order, or sometimes messages are missing. My phone is a Samsung Note 4 on stock MM. Was using the stock messaging app when the group conversations took place.

Also, vertical scrolling in the conversation and message lists is not very smooth on my phone.

Other apps like Pulse and Qksms do not have these issues.

the "copy code" action should replace the "reply" action because there isn't a need to reply to such messages
