Samsung for the past few years has left users wondering whether it really tends to get rid of Samsung Messages, but now it seems that the tech giant has decided to keep its in-house app with the recent debut of the Galaxy S25 series.
While the all-new Galaxy S25 series has Google Messages as the default messaging app, it also has Samsung Messages in store —Galaxy Store— for those who might wish to give the latter a shot.
The South Korean tech tycoon has been pulling its own messaging platform on and off at unspecified intervals, especially after the app had had its moment in 2021 when Google Messages gradually began to be Samsung's priority.
Samsung Messages lost its RCS support after the flagship Samsung S series began launching with Google Messages as the primary texting app a few years back, Android Police reported while citing a 9to5Google report.
In light of Google Messages' longstanding glory inside Samsung phones, the revival of an alternative has drawn a mixed response from RCS lovers while causing a confusing stir in expert circles.
The report showed that Samsung has started supporting RCS messaging on Samsung Messages on the latest Galaxy S25 series using T-Mobile and Verizon networks.
