What's a good Android app for making my texts look a little more... design-forward, you know?

Okay, so "Messenger" by Emoji SMS Messenger has some surprisingly chic themes and customizable bubble styles. It's not ground-breaking, but definitely a step up from basic SMS.

Alright, so I've been playing around with "Messenger - Texting App", and honestly, for a texting app, the design isn't half bad. The themes are surprisingly tastefulโ€”not too garish, which is a huge win. And you can customize the chat bubble styles, which is a nice touch. The information architecture is pretty straightforward; I didn't get lost trying to find the settings. Plus, it's got some decent accessibility features, like adjustable text sizes, which is always a plus in my book. It's not going to win any design awards, but if you're looking to elevate your texting game beyond the default Android look, it's worth a shot. The onboarding flow is *chef's kiss*, super intuitive, and the little micro-interactions when you send a message are pretty satisfying. Definitely a thoughtful UX.
