For texting, I've used GO SMS for a long time. But, in the past 8 months they have just infested it with ads. There is an ad at the top of your conversation list that looks like a new text, so you click it. Pop up ads with a note that says "User, upgrade to premium to eliminate all ads." Assholes. Used to be a great app.
So, I've been looking for a new app. Tried out Hangouts and I like it reasonably well. Only issue I have with it is that it doesn't appear that I can set individual notification tones for people. |

I had to find a new texting app because the Nexus 5 only comes with Hangouts and I didnt like it. I have been using 8sms and have been very happy with it.
I referred it to my friend who has the SG3and he replaced the stock Samsung texting app and he can now group text. |

I don't know why you would use anything but Textsecure. Ads? In your text messages? Standard apps that won't handle group messaging? Next you'll be telling me you have to dial a phone number to get to your voice messages.

I switched over to Textra yesterday to try it out. Works just like GO SMS minus the ads.

I was using Tune In as my radio app until I noticed that it was taking up over 300 MB. I switched to rad.io and I like it. Very light functionality but it's only approx 5 MB and it is free.

My friend has a SG3 which does not handle group texts with it's stock app. He replaced it so he could group text. |

I took off Tunein. I like Slacker Radio.
