Just another post trying to rally people behind supporting a samsung .essages comeback because of the better UI consistency and layout. 

I'm tired of samsung forced to roll with google messages for whatever reason, but im hoping they are developing it and not letting it die out. Its still active in other countries so I know it's an option but they would have to figure iut the details to have RCS back for everyone

If I wanted a pixel, I would have bought one.

Has absolutely nothing to do with the Pixel line and everything to do with RCS.

Mass RCS adoption is a goal for both Google and Samsung, and both companies have publicly stated that Google Messages is the vehicle for achieving this.

If you don't care about advanced messaging features or cross-platform compatibility, you can still use other texting apps. That's the beauty of Android.

Yes, but the lack of RCS features is the only thing stopping me. I rely on them a lot in group chats for pictures and videos

I think it's a lot easier for Samsung to just use Google's services. It's universal from phone to phone, and they don't have to spend time or money updating apps when Google comes up with something better. I don't mind using Google Messages, as it has more features than Samsung Messages did.

I simply enjoyed the Samsung messages because they worked so nicely with the themes ๐Ÿ˜„ I wish Google would allow that same design capabilities. I know you can do some but it still doesn't jive the same unless I am missing something?

We use Samsung messages. We are on a shared 2 GB data plan so we absolutely don't use RCS or we would run out of data very quickly. Both have S25+ .. mine made in Vietnam. He's on his second one made in Korea & about to return 2nd one due to intermittent receipt of group messages. Doesn't matter whether on Google or Samsung messages... Doesn't matter if 3 bars on LTE or 5 bars of 5G... the problem persists. Anyone else have this going on?
