A month ago google updated Messages on the S26 Ultra where they took the time stamp of when a text was sent from underneath the text message box n put it to the right side now if you need to see when you sent a message you have to slide the entire message to the left this doesnt work first the message box doesnt always slide and you have to repeat the slide until it works then if you do that sometimes the editing choices list comes up...change it back to what it was some things on the S26 ultra dont need to be updates n changed

It's not just the S26 Ultra. My S25 FE is the same way. Google is the one that updated it.

If you don't like what Google did to their messaging app, might I suggest complaining to Google. After all they are the app developers.

Samsung has nothing to do with the functionality of Google apps. You have to contact Google with your feedback.
Seriously, how often does one actually need to know when a message was sent, delivered or read? I can see it being necessary for legal matters or just to know how long ago you missed a message. Other than that, all I want to do is read my actual messages.

I have an older phone but I just went to settings - apps - Samsung Message and held it down then the option to UNINSTALL came up and I tapped that. Done.
I hope that works for you.

Well you just taught me something. Lol
I didn't even realize I could slide my messages over and see the time stamps. I obviously never truly cared about the exact time of messages just the day, date and initial time the first message (text) was sent. If I ever need that information in the future now I know where to find it. Thank you.
