Google Messages

[Carterc2]

I love using the Sa.sung message app. However recently, I get every day a notice from Google to say to upgrade to Google Message to safeguard my data. This also has a convenient Upgade button. 

Does anyone know how I can stop these notifications? FYI - Google Message app is disabled (it can't be deleted) and all notications blocked.

Hey there and welcome to the Samsung UK and EU Community Customer to Customer Forum

It is understood that Samsung Messages will not be around for much longer and will be replaced by Google Messages.

This is certainly the case in the US so expect Europe to follow in due course but for now Samsung are encouraging users to move of their own accord.

Hello @Carterc2 

May I extend a Warm Welcome to the Samsung Community Forum 👋 

I totally understand and appreciate your viewpoint on this as I too recieve this pop up message quite regularly also. 

As it does look like support for Samsung Messages will soon discontinue , we'll all have to adapt and change. 

My viewpoint is that I personally prefer Samsung Messages as it's the inbuilt app I've always used, which has always been seamless ,and ticks my wants and needs boxes. 

Sometimes change is hard  😕 

If i can be of any further help please don't hesitate to ask  😎
