    One thing I don't like about the messages app is a lack of time stamps next to text messages. Is there a setting that can add time stamps? Heck, it would be nice if I could change the size of the message font as well. Is it possible?

    The messages app on Android shows date and time stamps.

    What device and OS are you using?

    It's the Key2, so I guess Android Oreo?

    It doesn't seem to show time stamps for all messages though.

    On my KEY 2's both the messages show date / time stamp and shown on hub also.

    Messages app is the standard Google messages which is integrated in the HUB.

    Works perfectly.

    The hub shows the time and date of the last message. But if I scroll though a long string of texts in the messages app it doesn't timestamp all messages similar to the Passport.

    Are you using the Google messages app?

    Yes, I have that very same Google Messages app. I do see some time stamps in text messages to one person. But in my group text messages there are missing time stamps. Maybe the problem only occurs in group messages.

    In the Messages app or the Hub?

    2 x different apps.

    Not really, the Hub just opens the SMS app.

    I use Textra, slide in from the right to view all timestamps.

    They are 2 x different apps that can talk to each other.

    Trying to determine if erasing the messages on Hub is affecting the date and time stamps within the Messages app.

    We also have the Inbox view within Hub that also receives a copy of these messages.

    I mean I don't see timestamps in the Messages app, but this only seems to happen in a group text message that includes 5 people.

    I have noticed that too, and not just in group texts. I don't know of a setting that changes it.

    About fontsize: I think the only way is to change font size globally, in "settings" >"display settings".

    And again Textra allows you to adjust font-size inside the app.

    I discovered that you can see the date and time of ANY text message by merely tapping on that message once. The date and time will then appear underneath.
