3 duplicate Google messages apps

[qmau5]

Can anyone explain why or how I now have 3 duplicate Google messages apps on my phone? When I go to the app selection Google messages shows up 3 times back to back.

Good to know. Tried the clear cache and didn't solve the issue

It was fixed today, update Google messages and reboot your phone.

Hi there,

It seems you're encountering an issue where Google Messages appears multiple times in your app list. This is a known glitch, particularly affecting users in the beta program. The good news is that it's typically resolved with a simple update.us.community.samsung.com

Steps to Fix:

1. Update Google Messages:

   • Open the Google Play Store.

   • Search for Google Messages.

   • If an Update button is available, tap it to update the app.

2. Reboot Your Device:

   • After updating, restart your phone to ensure all changes take effect.

Many users have reported that this resolves the issue. If the problem persists, consider clearing the app's cache or reinstalling itus.community.samsung.com

Let me know if you need further assistance!
