I'm moving from iOS to Android. Does anyone know of an SMS app that has rich links like iMessage does? What I mean by rich links is a picture and link to the website, not just the highlighted web address

It's the same with Samsung native sms app except you get the link and the picture

There are plenty of options and others to try

I have edited out the pictures of contacts against each bubble btw and use a dark theme as amoled displays are more battery efficient with black

Nothing extra here with Apple sms

Dunno if that's your custom theme or something, but that looks awful.

Lol

I have edited out the photos of each contact adjacent each bubble as it' a public forum :) so it looks a little more bland

As noted above I have a dark theme of simple high contrast black for battery efficiency with Amoled displays. I understand Apple are now going to grant a dark theme also as they have finally gone amoled

I prefer blackish backgrounds in sunny climes, of course you can knock your socks off with themes if you choose too :D
