With the new iRealSMS update you can reply to text's form whatever app you are using, when you get a text just hit quick reply and it will reply to the text without exiting whatever app you are using.

I tried it and it works great for me, its so convenient. The only thing i would like changed is if you quick reply it still shows the text as unread, which is kind of annoying but whatev
 
I LOVE this option!

I never thought how annoying was it having the app close down and go to SMS to reply.

LOVE IT!
 
Anybody else using this have problems with how slow it is? Takes FOREVER to load large conversations, takes forever for a bubble to pop up after sending a message, the whole application is choppie and unstable. I really want to be able to use the quick reply feature, do you guys not have these problems? Or do you just deal with them?

yah its the main reason why im not bothering with irealsms. it takes forever to load a large convo cause the author didn't bother to break up the messages by day like how the native sms app does.
 
Yeah I'm definitely not impressed. Waste of money IMO.

I'll be sticking with the native SMS app.

Maybe is just me, but I don't have use for the conversations tab. I always use the SMS tab, which I dont see any problems with....
 
That is what I have been doing for now, trying to make it work because of the quick reply. But I definitely like the conversation tabs, if it were a better option.
 
Bite sms is great, the sms & contacts forward is worth it alone, and location sharing via sms at the swipe of a finger is so very cool :)

Btw it's free too.

It doesn't offer quick reply, otherwise I would definitely use Bite. Being able to reply to a message without leaving your application is awesome though.
