Hey lucb1e, thank you for your feedback.
In answer to your questions:
do you support Symbian?
Unfortunately not, it only works for android.
Does it integrate with the OS; Whatsapp; Nimbuzz? Pidgin on Linux?
It basically is fully tested on the native android text messaging app, and it should work for anything that sends out texts, provided they are up to specification and broadcast the standard events.
Thank you for taking the time to comment, and I appreciate your feedback.

1. I can use mark-as-unread (or flag e-mail messages, I don't see the use of flags when you can mark as unread but whatever)
2. I cannot see how this would actually work. I mean, do you support Symbian? All applications that use any kind of messaging on Symbian? Does it integrate with the OS; Whatsapp; Nimbuzz? Pidgin on Linux? This is edging impossibility to do.
3. If I can't mark as unread or am too lazy to, I leave the application opened. Edit: Oh but most smartphone apps are always left running in the background, then this would be harder. I prefer an OS which closes an application when I close it. /edit
The initiative is pretty okay and I like the website. It just won't work for everyone (because of #2) and especially not for me (#1 and #3).
