I'm really regretting installing it on my S6 yesterday. The user interface is much harder to use. I only wear glasses for long hours in front of a computer (and not for any other use; don't use them for watching TV or for general reading) but it feels like I'm going to have to wear glasses just to be able to use my b|oody mobile phone.
(I loved the dark scheme that came with my old S3 -- I wish that could have been carried over to subsequent models.)
I've read things on other forums like "Hey, this is progress -- live with it -- don't be a dinosaur; get with it, luddite", but when they introduce things that make your phone harder to use for the most basic of functions that have featured on mobile phones for 20+ years (i.e. text messages) AND without any means to tweak the settings, it's just mucking around and trashing the user's experience for the sake of doing something new and with no option for the user to revert back to previous functionality.
I'm loathe to have to go hunting around for a third-party SMS app but if it comes to that, does anyone have any recommendations?
Anyone considering updating -- please do some research on the various forums before deciding. I'd love to go back to my phone that worked just how I wanted it to ... 😞

Thanks -- I haven't managed to find any black styles optimised for Nougat -- there's still a lot of white white white! Solid icons would be amazing though, rather than very faint pale coloured outlines.
The phone admittedly is running a bit more smoothly, but the changes they've made to the SMS message app are maddening. I've looked on Google play but with every other one I've seen there are people complaining about glitches -- not able to send/receive picture messages etc.
I've found that TU is not ideal as a text message app -- probably best to leave that for its intended purpose.
Just posting some screen shots for show what I was on about with the ridiculous VIEW ALL (what were they thinking??!)
Then the next screen where you have to go to read the full message ...
