'Launch Center Pro' Developer Releases Quick Messaging Apps 'Group Text+' and 'Email+'

by

Launch Center Pro developer Contrast today launched Group Text+ and Email+, two apps for quickly creating messages and emails by using shortcuts for adding contacts, groups, images, and more. Both apps work similarly to Launch Center Pro, with Contrast touting a "simplified" and "refined" interface for easily composing messages with shortcuts.


For example, a Group Text+ user can quickly send an iMessage or SMS message sharing a location by tapping a few contacts, tapping a shortcut to add the location, and tapping a camera shortcut to take a photo of the location. Users can also send animated GIFs or copied text from the clipboard without having to manually input content, and shortcuts work in the exact same way for Email+. Group Text+ and Email+ also include their own iOS 8 Share sheet extensions, as users can easily compose a new message in other apps like Safari to easily access information.

When I tried to purchase from the App Store on release day, I'm told that it is temporarily unavailable and to try again later...
Probably just propagating through App Store servers.
