Is Samsung going to get rid of their messenger app? When I opened the app yesterday several times, it kept popping up for me to try to use the Google messenger app. Seems weird they would advertise it unless they are getting some form of money exchanged. 

Also, can they please bring back read receipts please if the app is staying.

Interesting. Wonder if they're getting out of the software biz for their phones. Seems they rely more and more on apps to do various things on their phones that should just work without an app. I guess some stupid patent or lawsuit might be to blame.

Everyone says they are getting rid of it but on my Flip6 downloading the independent app, I'm connected to RCS with Chat settings (via Jibe I assume because TOS and notices in app redirecting to Google pages about Jibe) and RCS works with iOS and Google Messages RCS users.

Not the case on my S24U which only has carrier advanced messaging option.. both phones are from AT&T.
