Looking for a FOSS SMS app that is fully compatible with Android 14. I've had issues with finding one, I used to use (I think) QKSMS, but it started to crash when I upgraded to LOS 21. Now I just use the LineageOS SMS app, I think it is AOSP messages.

What SMS apps do you use? No required features. Scheduled texts are nice, though.

              Deku SMS: has AES encryption support but is kinda shady, has trackers?
Fossify Messages: simple, based on AOSP messages
LineageOS Messages: modern and simple, based on AOSP messages, but no APKs available and not installable on other Androids with the APPID they use
