Alright, so what's a decent Android app for just plain sending texts without all the bloatware and garbage I don't need in the middle of a dinner rush?

Look, most messaging apps are stuffed with crap. But "Messages" by Apps Specials? It just sends texts, quick and dirty. No fancy BS, just gets the job done when I'm slammed.

Listen, I've tried a bunch of messaging apps, and most of 'em are like trying to make a delicate sauce with a sledgehammer. Too much crap you don't need! I just need to tell my supplier to hold the anchovies, not create a freakin' GIF. This "Messages" app, though, it's different. It's like a good, sharp knife – simple, effective, and doesn't get in the way. I can use it one-handed with flour all over my fingers. Quick enough to fire off a text during the lunch rush, and it doesn't try to sell me some premium crap. It's got a clean interface too, which is a lifesaver when you're juggling six orders and a screaming line cook. Honestly, it's the only messaging app I've found that's actually practical for a working chef.
