My Samsung Messages app keeps closing. I've restarted my phone multiple times. I've gone to Settings > App Settings > Messages > Storage and hit Clear cache and Clear data. When I do this, the space used for cache and data go down to 0, but then immediately go back up to the original storage amounts when I reopen Messages.

I found a previous conversation about Messages crashing in Dec 2023 and tried following the instructions but when I held down the power button and volume up with the phone turned off, the phone restarted as normal, even though I held them down until after the Samsung logo disappeared.

If I can't fix it, can I install a different app for

My Google storage is 94% full. Could that be connected?

Thank you for this! I disabled Meet and suddenly my Message app works again. So weird. I'd never have figured it out so thank you so much for posting it!

I'm having the same problem but I haven't got Google meet app. Is there anything else that can cause it to keep crashing?

*DISABLE GOOGLE MEET*

After reading many forums with other recent suggestions, I followed your recommendation first because it was the least intrusive. It worked so thank you!

Thanks 🙏🏽 Worked immediately for me too. That was frustrating. And seems like an odd fix, wonder how they figured out that that would fix it.
