+- **Conversations** with unread markers and contact names, **chat** with grouped bubbles and day separators, **new chat** from contacts or a number, **search**, **archive** and **delete**, call from the chat.
+- **Notifications** with direct reply and "mark as read".
+- **No network permission**; messages stay in Android's own SMS database.
+- Not included: RCS (Google/carrier backend), spam protection, Gemini features. MMS (pictures, group MMS) comes later.

 **Releases.** Every app is published as a release titled `<App> <version>` (for example `Wetter 0.1.0`, tag `wetter-v0.1.0`) with one asset named `<app>-<version>.apk`. Obtainium shows *"no matching version"* until the first release of an app exists.
 
 **F-Droid:** not available yet. The apps contain no proprietary libraries, so an F-Droid build is planned (either the main repository or a self-hosted F-Droid repo).
