RCS Just Disappeared From Samsung Messages

usery0Jtd34Kh0 — Sun, 12 Apr 2026 18:19:31 GMT

I was in the process of switching to Google Messages (☹️) on my Galaxy 20 FE and then decided to just keep using Samsung Messages until I get a new phone in a couple weeks. I set Samsung Messages back to default and now the option for RCS has disappeared?? I tried forcing stop, clearing cache, airplane mode on and off, and reset network. Any other ideas?

You have to turn it off in Google Messages first.

I was just about to say I'll just live with it, but now RCS is on all of a sudden! I still don't see a setting for it, but the blue dots come back on people's icons if I open them. And messages are now listed as "chat" instead of "text" in details. It's really weird. Thanks for the help, everyone.
