I remember I used to be able to set a 3-30 second time-frame that the text message would move to the message list as 'sent,' but it would have an 'X' next to the text. If I hit the 'X', the text would pop right back into the edit box. It was a feature I used religiously since I am a typo machine. I have tried a multitude of different text apps that claim to have the same feature, but for one reason or another they don't work the same rendering the whole effect is pointless. I have no idea why they would remove a feature that is already part of the native SMS app that was a non-default option.

It's been a few years since I gave up looking for an alternative, so I will likely take a look around again.
