Google messages

[Msharp95]

So I have had an update to Samsung messages and it said to upgrade to Google messages. I did and it changed straight away. Luckily, I haven't deleted Samsung messages so have saved it. I guess it won't be long before they get rid of it all together. 

It's s shame. I hope they don't get rid of other Samsung Apps like calander, clock, reminders or notes. I like the way they look compared to Google versions. 

Does anyone just use google apps??

Prefer samsung apps myself to.

I forgot Samsung Internet! Way better than Chrome.
Dark mode alone is miles better.

They are getting rid of the messages app? I tried Google messages but didn't like it so switched back 🙈

Yes, Samsung messages is going and being replaced with Google messages I'm afraid.

[Msharp95]

Yep. Unfortunately I have 'upgraded' to Google messages. I'll have a go with it but i much prefer the look and feel of Samsung messages. It has a chat feature which is basically RCS, so I don't know why they can't keep and update it.

[Piper123]

Samsung appear to have decided that there is little benefit to keeping two apps that broadly do the same thing. The cost and time of maintaining them.....

Google has RCS (they developed it).

[Msharp95]

I understand that, to be fair it makes business sense. I just hope they don't go the same way with other Samsung apps.

Do you know when?

The migration has already started
