Handcent SMS
Handcent SMS enhances and extends the text messaging features on your HTC Incredible. The single most unique feature is the ability to search through your sms history to find those long-list text messages. Other features are offered by several other apps on the Android Market but the rest don’t pull it all together quite like Handcent SMS does. This app can speak your text messages out loud. It also lets you change the font, background, and color of your text messaging interface. The SMS popup feature also works really well on the HTC Incredible.
Another excellent feature is the ability to create and save groups of frequently messaged contacts. You can also create separate groups for different events and blast a single sms to everyone in one shot. The interface is very easy-to-use and the advanced features are very discoverable. You can customize notifications when you recieve messages within Handcent SMS. This app takes over the text messages functionality of your smartphone, so be prepared to handle the interface change. Fortunately it’s so well-designed and functional that you’ll likely never go back.
