Why can't Apple add this to the OS? (Stop text message from being sent)

[Vandam500]

I have BiteSMS 4.5 and do not see this feature or how to turn it on... any suggestions??

Open BiteSMS then go into the Settings. Scroll down until you see "Delay Sending" and select your desired interval. After that your all set, when you send a text message next time you see a red button that says stop. Hit it to stop sending the message or do nothing for it to send.

OH! Gotcha.. kind of worded weird in settings I guess.. I was looking for 'allow stop option' or something similar haha

Thanks.

The feature on BiteSMS isn't necessarily "stopping" the text, if you look at it, it's more like a timer and within that time window you have to hit stop or else it WILL send. Notice after the bar is complete, it's not completed sending, it just finished the timer you have to stop it. After the bar is complete and you didnt hit stop, it then starts the sending sequence of the message.

to be fair, 90% of the times you cancel an SMS it's actually sent nonetheless. The process of sending a text is very fast .. normally it takes longer because the phone waits for the OK confirmation from the message centre, but even if you don't get the confirmation, the text is sent.

i've seen it in many previous phones, most times when you cancel a text the phone quits the sms app but the sms centre has already received the message.

That was on "previous phones". With this implementation it never sends if you hit stop
