[FEATURE PROPOSAL] Organize text messages into folders

/e/OS Smartphone Operating System Request a Feature
1

(Hoping this is the right subforum to post in.)

I love that I can pin an unlimited (seemingly) number of text messages (and loving /e/OS and my Fairphone6 in general), but my pinned messages are getting out of hand. Would it be possible to implement a way to organize text conversations into folders? (This is needed for SMS/MMS to my phone number specifically, so other messaging apps that have this feature like Signal are not acceptable alternatives for this unfortunately.)

(Sorry if this is a duplicate request/post. I tried searching before posting this.)

You might want to look at Clear SMS | F-Droid - Free and Open Source Android App Repository - maybe it answers your need.
Disclaimer - I tried it but I need to invest time to make the rules match my needs so for now went back to the “regular” one.

I’ll check that out, thank you!

Updating for posterity: Clear SMS via F-Droid wasn’t a good alternative. Rules are too convoluted when I basically just want to sort by sender.
