I'm glad you found an app that you like! Still, I'd be curious too! Did your messages always behave like that, or did they just start auto-copying you at some point?

If there was a settings issue somewhere, then in theory restoring the device to factory defaults would knock it back to normal.

Hey! I tried several things that were suggested in forums where someone was having the same problem or very similar problems. I cleared the cache partition on the phone and the app. I even tried blocking my own number. I was using the native app. Nothing worked. I finally started using Textra, and it works beautifully. I don't mind using Textra at all. I really like the app, but I'm still curious as to why that was happening with the native app.
