Go SMS Pro: the inevitable conversation view (left) can be tweaked and tweaked (right)

Apart from looking good, running smoothly, having numerous wallpaper and theme options and a handy widget, Go SMS Pro has a couple of features up its sleeve that really can enhance your text life.

To start with a side-swipe from the main message panel takes you to a folder page that gives instant access to your sent, draft and scheduled messages as well as your in and out boxes.

Anther swipe takes you to a plug-ins page which though rather sparsely populated at the moment with only a wallpaper maker and yet-to-be activated Facebook chat feature suggests more goodies to come.

Scheduled messages? Yes indeed. Go SMS Pro will let you compose or reply to a message and send the message at a any predetermined time in the next 24 hours.
