Go SMS - Android Application of the Week

I've been using the Android OS for a month and found hundreds of useful but free applications in the Android Market. The first thing I wanted to modify was the way I would send SMS. One application popped up and I've been using it for almost a month now. It is very customizable and fits your needs in sending SMS efficiently and effectively.


It's called GO SMS and its free for download at the Android Market. Just search for GO SMS and you'll immediately find it in the search results. It has a cool user interface and can be personalized according to our needs. Here are some of it's features:

 FEATURES

  • Support chat-style interface just like in iPhones
  • Many available themes to choose from
  • Pops-up for quick reply, no need to open the inbox every time a message comes in
  • High support for MMS and SMS
  • Supports widgets
  • Highly Customizable
  • Supports multiple individual settings (Customize your contacts allerts from the ringtone to the LED light)
  • Back-up or Restore SMS
  • Security lock
  • Blacklist spammers
  • Animation effects in Inbox or conversation list
  • Batch Mode
  • Night Mode
  • Group Messaging
  • Reminder notification function
  • Privacy Modes

CONCLUSION


The best thing I like about this application is that it is very much customizable. For example, you can customize how you receive messages from one of your friends. You can customize the notification/ringtone, you can customize the color of the notification that pops-up, you can even customize the LED light's color so even when your display is off you will still know who sent you a message. The background and themes can also be customized. Rating - 9/10
