Any suggestions on alternate texting clients?  My biggest complaint about the stock one is I can't tell when responding to a text if I'm responding to a group or just an individual.  Also, when I get long texts from my family with Iphone's it breaks the message into multiple texts.  I suspect this has to do with SMS vs MMS.

Thanks!

SMS is limited to 140 characters, so it's always going to break up into multiple messages if it's longer than that amount. If they need longer, they should use email.

 

As for alternative clients, my "first" favorite was Pansi.

It has a clean looking interface, and you can default to non-threaded messages if you want. 

 

That said, I have been using the built-in SMS client in Contacts+ as of late, once I learned that I could actually delete individual messages, rather than a whole thread by long pressing a particular message.

 

If you use Contacts+ give it a try!
