I have a friend that just switched from an iPhone to the S4 and pointed out a small quirk in the TouchWiz default Texting App.
When a text message comes in, the lock screen will show a notification that lets you know you've got an incomming text, but you cannot jump to the text message by interacting with that notification. You have to swipe to unlock, then tap on the texting app.
Secondly, when you open the texting app, the screen opens to the last texting conversation you had. So if the new text you've recieved was from someone different than the last person you've sent or recieved a text from, you have to back out of that conversation to your list of all texting threads and open the new text.
Just seems like a lot of actions to get to a new text (swipe to clear lock screen + open texting app + navigate back to list of all text threads + open text thread of new message = 4 actions)
Does anyone know how to have the default TouchWiz texting app to automatically open to the new incoming text?
If not, does anyone know of a better texting app that does this (and also handles group texts with iPhone users appropriately)?
Thanks in advance!
