While it is only available in the UK, US, and India, Microsoft keeps updating the app with interesting features. With the latest update (version 1.1.183), the app now has a snack bar for battery optimization on OnePlus smartphones.
Microsoft launched SMS Organizer in India, but it has since arrive in the United Kingdom and United States. However, it is in India where the app has become increasingly popular.

Still, other users should also grab this update because it adds an important fix:
Changelog
