I am trying to give Samsung messages one more try. One of the major reasons why I don't use it is the "view all" as the only way to open longer messages.
I've never seen it in any other message app. 

Accessabily and usability seem important to Samsung, and I believe this could be addressed in this beta. 
Please consider doing away with this extra step to read a message. 
Thoughts? (besides using Google messages lol)

I agree, that's one of the reasons why I don't use Samsung Messages, Also there is limited customization. Google and Verizon messages are much better.

It's the native message app that's also on your phone. (may be regional) some places replaced it completely with Google messages I think

I use textra. It's tons better and I've never had any issues that so many other people had with messaging apps during the entire beta tests. In fact, I was having problems getting texts from a friend who is with AT&T and I tried Samsung messenger, Google messenger and still had problems with them then I tried Textra as I've used it before and no more problems. And this was before beta testing so I just suggest if people don't like Samsung or Google messages try Textra. It's free and it's awesome and fully customizable.

I agree that Textra is a great sms app. I used to use it before I started using Google Messages. It's got lots of great customizations. And yes, during times when one message app or another isn't working properly, it's good to have in your hip pocket.
I recently tried to go back to it but it doesn't sync up with my tablet.
I'll just keep using Google Messages unless Samsung's gets a revamp.

Oh you are using a tablet. I use it on my S23 Ultra. I don't message on my tablet. It's unfortunately not connected to my mobile network because I got it from Amazon and it doesn't even take a sim card and TMOBILE said even an esim wouldn't work so I just use it on my mobile Hotspot. I don't have wifi where I live because it's too rural but I get 100 gigs of Hotspot a month so it's good that TMOBILE offers it.

Nice! I also bought my tablet from Amazon/Samsung... It's WiFi only as well. But it syncs up with Google Messages through my phone. Samsung message doesn't seem to sync at all.

Oh ok I understand now. I never tried to synch my messages on both. I got the S6 Lite 2022 edition. I really like it.
