Samsung message app

[Lowrider]

Is Samsung going to get rid of their messenger app? When I opened the app yesterday several times, it kept popping up for me to try to use the Google messenger app. Seems weird they would advertise it unless they are getting some form of money exchanged. 

Also, can they please bring back read receipts please if the app is staying.

Whats your reason for not liking Google Messages?

I don't need all the extra junk

What makes it "extra junk"?

[Lowrider]

I prefer simplicity

But Google Messages is simple though?

Samsung had features that I miss in the Google app. In Samsung's app the messages could be sorted into category tabs and there was a trash can in case I accidentally deleted something I wanted to keep.

Here's a comparison that shows some of the other features of Samsung Messages.
