Who else absolutely hates Google messages. I wish samsung would allow us to pin messages like iPhone does. Also we can't copy anymore with Google messages .

And add emojis to chats. Phew! That's worth the extra aggravation.

Since 2015, I have consistently utilized Google Messages on Samsung devices and, in fact, prefer it over Samsung Messages.

Exactly! Pinning has been a feature for quite some time now. Also, now have selective text copying too.

I understood selective text copying to be only in beta channels at this point. Please confirm if you have this in a stable release and how to pull it off.

Instead of pinned messages I'd like the categories function Samsung messages had

Just slide the page up, you don't have to have the blank space there.
It makes it easier to reach your pinned chats.

Yeah, I can't believe Samsung, like Google, get him out of kernel level. Like the inside the knox, they've got like, just as much control as samsung now... and it shows when it was just, Samsung graphics were better like there was a difference. I hate it.

I just saw the added themes today, and i started to use some. Now, AT&T is not letting wifi calling connect. It had been eorking fine earlier today. Even after deleting the theme( just a galkery picture), and restarting my phone, it wont connect. Any suggestions 🤔

I had to contact tech support for AT&T to get my phone to work with wifi calling. My home wont work without it. The only thing that I did between Friday night and Sunday afternoon, when it stopped working, was add themes on Google messages! So I am sticking with boring screen now!! 🤣
