I accidentally my whole phone. I do have a Titanium Backup of Simple SMS Messenger, from which I can extract the conversations.db. However, when I launch the app, it replaces the conversations. I do not have an export. I would like a method of merging / importing the old conversations from the database. I'm techy and can write SQL, Python, etc. I've had a quick look at the exporter to see if I can replicate the JSON format of the exported conversations. But I thought I might ask in case anyone here has already solved this or has better advice. Cheers!

Simple SMS Messenger (version 5.16.1): SMS messaging and MMS messaging app for Android, send messages fast, nice UI

There is an open-source implementation of an RCS stack that these apps (QKSMS and Simple SMS) might be able to use.

I wasn't impressed with Simple SMS, the devs are a bit slow to fix issues such as the one i reported.

I take about sms app...QKSMS (https://github.com/moezbhatti/qksms) seems dead...But there is an active fork, PartisanSMS (https://github.com/wrwrabbit/Partisan-SMS), cons : it's not on f-droid...Simple SMS (https://github.com/SimpleMobileTools/Simple-SMS-Messenger/) not a huge fan of Simple apps... but on f-droid.Sad about all of this... It was a pro to migrate some people...

A few months ago, news broke that Lichess now has a full-time developer for the mobile app. How can I track the development status of the Lichess Mobile App? What features are planned, is there a roadmap? I can't see anything about it on the github page.

I guess that you can keep an eye on the official page: https://lichess.org/mobile

At least on when using the app [this Lichess bug](https://github.com/lichess-org/lichobile/issues/1027) prevents playing any blitz games without taking a bigger rating hit.

lichess (version 7.16.1): free online chess

I have been using the official Android client ( https://github.com/lichess-org/lichobile ), and the only feature I use is anonymous "Quick pairing" games. That is, I do not log into Lichess. The official client does not require login.

It works on the website (desktop and mobile). It will be available in the app soon.

I submitted a PR (for the non-developers: programming code change suggestion) that made the game events emit haptic feedback.

Lichess is actually open source, the mobile app is written in a mixture of typescript, swift and kotlin using ionic capacitor to access the native sdk. I don’t really know the differences between ionic and react native but I don’t see why it shouldn’t be possible to write it using the latter. Mind you that the mobile front end it’s just one of the many blocks that constitute the lichess app as a whole
