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?

Disable "Google Meet" that will fix it. Google meet is conflicting with the message app

Open you app drawer search for Meets once it's located long press on it and select disable

Disable "Google Meets" that will fix the issue. Somehow Google meets is interfering with the "message" app. Until I found this fix I downloaded Google messenger which will work as well

I would like to know exactly what everyone did to disable or Uninstall Google Meet to get their messages to work, because I deleted the app and still can't get my messages to work. And yes, I defragged my phone, rebooted it 3 times and guess what, I still can NOT read or respond to my messages. I open it and 30 seconds later, it's booting me off
