Ghost Messaging
A texting app for Android, with your texts on your Mac or PC too. Your SMS and picture messages, with reactions, effects and a choice of emoji, in the same quiet design as Ghost.md and Ghost Keyboard.
- Replaces your texting appEvery conversation you already have is there the moment you switch, and still there if you switch back.
- Reactions that landA ❤️ from an iPhone or a Pixel sits on the message it was for, not in a line of its own. Send yours back.
- EffectsBalloons for "Happy birthday", confetti for "Congrats", lasers for "pew pew", and ghosts for "Boo".
- Your emojiThe phone's own, Noto, Twemoji, OpenMoji or a clean outline set.
- TicksSent, delivered, and read where the other phone says so.
- Private by defaultNo account to make. What goes through our server between friends is sealed on your phone, so the server passes it along and can't read it. Linking a social account so friends can find you is yours to turn on.
Installing
- Download the APK on your Android phone and open it. Allow your browser to install apps if Android asks.
- Open Ghost Messaging and choose "Set as default SMS app".
- That's it. It keeps itself up to date from here.
On a computer
- Download for Mac or Windows. On a Mac, open the zip and drag Ghost Messaging to Applications; on Windows, run the installer (Windows asks once, as it does for any app it doesn't know yet).
- On your phone, open Settings › Computers and pair: the computer shows your texts and sends through your phone, sealed between the two.
