Since Verizon decided to disable direct share in the stock sms app, does anybody know of an sms app that supports direct share AND location sharing besides Verizon Messages (battery hog) and Google Messenger (good but not customizable at all)? Not a huge deal, just curious.

Are instant messengers available that work like push email.
For example rather then have a constant internet connection that eats battery life an app that only makes a connection to check if there's new messages just like push messaging
Do any app's like this exist and if they don't is it even possible to create something like this

I could be wrong, but it think this is something the IM service would have to incorporate into their service, & AFAIK, none of them do. Depending on your service, i would suggest setting up IM Forwarding. I know AIM allows messages to be forwarded to a cell phone once you sign off, not sure about others though.
I see so it would be similar to how the POP3 and IMAP features work with email
I wonder how much it will take to convince any IM company to incorporate these features

There is Whatsapp (Beta) available perhaps in a month for my opinion the best push messaging client. And pingchat this app is available just search with google.
looking for the best widget / app for twitter. i'm sort of new to the twitter scene and don't really plan on broadcasting my life to a billion people, but i thought it might work well as a free alternative to sending text messages (which actually cost me money after a certain point).
anyway, just looking for suggestions on best widgets and/or apps.
thanks!
You can try Google Voice, it can send text messages for free. It can also be your voicemail as well. Then you can get the Google Voice app for Android, it integrates with the phone perfectly.
I think you may need to sign up for a new number when you register, to be able to use free texting.
I was wondering if there are any other apps out there that allow you to send and recieve sms messages to and from a alternative number over the data network.
I love the theory of Google Voice, however have found that the app is a bit buggy and some what of a battery hog.
Thanks in advance
Hello Guys,
I have developed one awesome app for rooted users in terms of privacy. I would like to share my this product with you guys so you can take advantage of this app, Also you can give me your best suggestions and feedback. You can checkout my app on Google Play Store:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.corefragment.secret
Secret WhatsApp allows users to encrypt their original WhatsApp's notifications. Sometimes we require privacy about some personal contacts. Guys, till now we have just used some locking and blocking apps for the purpose of privacy. But what about that condition when you are giving your cell to someone else and your gf or bf says "I love you darling!!!" on WhatsApp ? Uff!! You have already locked your WhatsApp by other apps but someone else can read your message easily by pulling down notification bar
So if you want to restrict someone else to read your private messages even from notification bar, you are on the perfect page . We would like to help you on this mode. Secret WhatsApp will be perfect choice to encrypt your WhatsApp's notifications. And hope you will love this privacy mode
Features we would like to server on Secret WhatsApp:
- Encrypt your original WhatsApp's notifications from notification bar.
- Lock your Secret WhatsApp by passcode.
- Use widget to on/off our service directly from home screen.
Note : We have already tested with most of the customized OS. But still we require your support to improve our service.By your feedback ,we can improve strong privacy mode for you. So if you feel uncomfortable with any of the customized OS, We’re always excited to hear from you! If you have any feedback, questions, or concerns, kindly email me.
Waiting for your feedback guys.
Hi together,
I am searching for an Android app I can use to write and read my SMS via Browser/PC.
Should be very easy and simple and not oversized with the need to get too much access rights like e.g. pushbullet etc.
Would be great if someone would give some tipps for that
Thanks in advance

i was searching for a specific solution... found this post... figured i'd share with you what i've learned so far.
i've been using "sprint with google voice integration" for a year or so. it provides the ability to text via the google/voice webpage. but - while the google voice (full) allows you to use SMS, MMS, gifs / attachments, etc. - "the sprint with google voice integration" just allows you to do SMS.
so i was (and still am) considering switching to google voice (full) but it would cost me ~ $60 to get my phone number ported to google voice ($40 to sprint for activation of old phone to avoid losing subsidy on new phone and $20 to google voice).
i found this website which lists apps that you can use which (i believe all) receive the text on your phone then send it to the web and notifies you on the web browser if you have the webpage open. however, because i need to be able to send & receive messages when my phone is off, i think that the only option is google voice.
