Google Messages Description

Google Messages is the official Google app for messaging. Google Messages is revolutionizing how a billion users connect and is powered by Rich Communication Services (RCS), the industry standard for texting that replaces SMS and MMS. With RCS, you can share high resolution photos and videos, enjoy dynamic group chats, and seamlessly connect with other RCS users including your iPhone friends.

• Rich Communication: Share high-quality photos and videos, see when friends are typing, and enjoy dynamic group chats that now seamlessly include your iPhone friends.
• Personal Touch: Make conversations uniquely yours with features like custom chat bubble colors or fun selfie gifs.
• Privacy Matters: Rest easy knowing your personal chats are protected with end-to-end encryption between Google Messages users, so no one (including Google and third parties) can read or view your messages and attachments except the person you’re messaging. Plus, enjoy advanced spam protection.
• AI-Powered Messaging: Craft the perfect message with Magic Compose suggestions and our latest AI features.
• Seamless Across Devices: Start a chat on your phone and continue it effortlessly on your tablet or computer. The app is also available on Wear OS.

Google Messages is more than just messaging; it's a richer, safer, and more expressive way to connect.

App is also available on Wear OS. Availability of RCS varies by region and carrier and a data plan may be required. Availability of features varies by market and device and sign up for beta testing may be required.

Comments about Google Messages Android Version

This app is okay. Not the best messaging app. The Samsung messaging app allows me to group conversations into different categories (like work and home). I really liked that feature. I have also been having issues sending messages to family and coworkers. The RCS is spotty at best and if that isn't working, the messages never switch to SMS even though I have that option turned on.
As of today, I am a first time user and my first impressions are generally good except for one huge disappointment. The area to compose and edit your messages is too small to work with. It makes it easier to mistakenly tap other screen elements around it (like "send" when you're not ready yet). This definitely needs to be fixed. Everything else is less important. We don't need an emoji button and microphone icon occupying the little bit of message editing space. That was poorly considered.
Latest update destroyed the app. It was great. Now it's so frustrating to use it makes me want to throw my phone across the room. You can't zoom on photos anymore. Sending several photos is now much harder because each time you send one it hides the photo selector, so you have to reopen it again. Edit: they did fix/reverse the update to the input box being on the left and weird. ±2 stars. Please also fix photo issues stated above.
