The major and only reason for me staying with the Samsung and not switching to apple is for the consistency of the theme across the ui. It matters to me that everything goes together and color match. It is very important to my experience -- and I really don't like how Google messages has a Google look that doesn't look like part of the team.

So, is there any possible solution to this? Is there a way I can either force Google message to let my theme applied at least the colors to it? Or is there any other text message apps that will be customized when I apply the Samsung theme?

I don't want to customize the text messages by myself, which most of the answers AI gives. I just want to let it automatically applied when I apply Samsung theme. I think Samsung has to find a way out or the whole theme idea is ruined because apps are no longer consistent in their look.

 

Really upset about this decision. I am not a tech geek, many functionalities they got to use don't speak much to me; I am not a Instagram influencer, so having the newest coolest communication sticker or gif doesn't mean much either-- I am just like to be myself and expressing my preferences by the theme I choose to use. Since apple care so much on being productive, and like to keep their high end simple style, I am happy Samsung support the customization all the way in. Losing that just feeling like they are chasing after this trend that they miss their own taste.

If I were to try one of the other mentioned 3rd- party apps (i.e., Handcent, Textra), I have questions about how that would work. Would ALL my Samsung Messages (SM) automatically flip into -- for purposes of this discussion -- Textra? Would the texting button on the contact entry automatically send it on Textra? Or do I have to do something specific to make that happen.
