Samsung messages Vs Google messages - Which one is Better?

[@kev_tho]

I prefer Samsung Messages over Google Messages for one reason. I don't know if anyone has mentioned this, but with Samsung Messages you can also create categories and organize your messages by those categories. I have a family category and work category and others. So depending on what category someone is in, I can just select that category to get to their messages quicker than scrolling down until I find that person's text thread. However, I do wish Samsung Messages has the reaction feature.

[@azaharis]

Yes to both of your points. I'm pulled both ways between needing the customization and categories of Samsung but the cool responses on Google. Conflicted.

[@Momentous.Living]

Categories/ groups is very important for me. I use Google msg but this is one feature I very much miss

[@jonettebrazier7217]

I'm not understand why they would they take that away. I need it! One of the best features.

[@sambell3103]

Google messages has better synchronization across ALL devices which includes phones, watches, tablets and PCs. Samsung messages is inconsistent with appearing on different devices.

[@RedJewel7]

All this time I had no idea about the categories in Samsung Messages and I've had Galaxies for years! Thank you! 😂

[@embracemycurls7148]

I used samsung messages for years. Once I upgraded to the S24 i switched to Google messages and i love it. The reactions feature sealed the deal for me.

[@fayettenampeach]

Same here! If Samsung messages would get the reactions feature, I'd go back in a heartbeat.

[@bakarimontage8571]

Do you feel weird?They're texting people with iphones

[@Donohuebro2]

I am never using Samsung messages again, the fact that I no longer get that bs "liked with the entire message" anymore is the dealbreaker, google messages is so much better

What made you switch specifically after getting the S24 Ultra? I have the same person myself

[@Mike_The_Hog_A_Nator]

I use Google Messages on my S24 Ultra. However, I do like Samsung Messages because you can set a different background for each person..

[@mah4283]

Idk why on samsung that they did their own skin on google messages as well as organizing messages in different categories i miss that in samsung messages

[@Jihadbearzwithgunz]

This and you can only set limited colors on Google messages for people using rcs messaging ..

[@danamanor6640]

thats why i use samsung, i do not want to change unless they add it to google

[@chelsearowland219]

You forgot a Fantastic feature on Samsung Messages that Every Galaxy user NEEDS to know. If you continue to hold down a message and bypass the menu, you can move the message and put it in the text box or you can move it to the the right or left side of the screen and it will open the message in Pop-Up or Split Screen View and provide app options depending on the message

[@js6909]

Thank you so much for sharing this fantastic tip about the Samsung Messages app! I really appreciate you taking the time to point out this super useful feature. Can't wait to try it out. Galaxy users are going to find this so helpful!

[@IDNHANTU2day]

I use Google Messages because I can archive. Archiving allows for a clean screen with only the current conversations visible. It also prevents sending messages to the wrong person since the "wrong person" is not visible.

[@Chef316]

Samsung Messages has a trash bin you can use in the same way. Messages are only then permanently deleted if you so choose

[@emirx1126]

I wish they didn't get rid of the categories feature where it shows the saved contacts in one section and the spams, otps on another section.

[@johnszatkowski6898]

BOTH apps allow to "pin" conversations but Samsung allows categories/groups that Google does not. I ALSO like the ability to have a different background image/color for each conversation that Google does not.! I will stick with Samsung until they completely kill the app!

[@rikko47]

I love the fact that you can change each chat background on Samsung messages and you can view all of the unread messages at once and not just mark them as read

[@johnszatkowski6898]

YES! It's a matter of preference and I too use Samsung's messaging app because it's seamless on my Samsung tablet when I'm home and RARELY pickup my phone.

[@edwuano7]

bro that and the catagories my favorite part of Samsung messages.

[@rikko47]

@edwuano7 indeed their categories are better than Googles, I do like that when you name a group it actually is named on Google tho

[@chelsearowland219]

I LOVE Samsung Messages so much, especially when I am using a theme. Galaxy Themes transforms messaging for me. For all the people who like Google Messages, that's Great for them, it's just not for me. To me, I think it's important to have options, and I want the option to choose Samsung Messages without losing chat features. My carrier won't provide RCS on Samsung Messages which is why I want Samsung to provide an instant messaging service in Samsung Messages, so Galaxy users can chat with other Galaxy users regardless of carriers. I hope Samsung will invest in Samsung Messages again for Galaxy users like me who prefer it. I really need Samsung to provide an instant messaging service in Samsung Messages like Apple provides iMessage in Apple Messages.

[@iamdanie_.]

I just read another comment saying samsunf is currently transitioning over to Google messages. Some phones started not coming with it or an update deleted Samsung and replaced it with Google 🤷🏽‍♀️

[@KoalaBeer.]

Google has themes on rcs

[@chelsearowland219]

@KoalaBeer. Those themes are so simple compared to Galaxy Themes. In Galaxy Themes search for the companies Cogul Planet, Echo Visual, and Pixome Design, and look at all those themes and what Samsung Messages looks like. Even download the trial to see for yourself firsthand. The attention to detail in the theme the designers put in is astonishing. Try it and tell me what you think

Another feature some do not know about is the search feature. If you click on a text and then click on the 3 dots in the top right. You can do a search for a specific word, like "money". I use this when my sons mother says one thing and changes it or claims she has never said something in the past lol. I have her text history as far back as 2016. Thats the only text history i have never deleted. Might not be very helpful to some, but it is definitely helpful when I'm holding her accountable for anything she says 😂

Main reason i havent switched to google messeages is because it doesnt have chat cutomize. I can add a picture to the txt background and i love that feature.

[@Salvytron76]

The Google messaging app was preloaded into the S24 & if you wanted to use samsung messages you had to download it. I prefer google messages, but i donlike some features from Samsung messages. I think maybe both apps should merge & use all best features.

[@TheZippyMark]

My S24 came with both, but Google as default

[@fos49]

If Samsung Message adopted the follow features it would be the best messaging app: the Reactions when you press and hold; the Suggested Reply; and the ability to change the name of the group when in a group text. All three of these are available in Google Message and are the reasons why I keep going back to Google Message.

[@jacehiggs3637]

I love my Samsung messages, but keep getting notified to "UPGRADE" to Google messages. Can you please say what features if any you miss from Samsung messages, and what other features you may love from Google messages? It may help me in my decision to "upgrade" or not. Thanks

[@jacehiggs3637]

Hopefully you reply as I just saw you'd commented originally 2 months ago. There are definitely some features I don't want to lose from my Samsung messages. Having the same number 18 years always been a Samsung phone, and same carrier provider; There are conversations and texts that I just CANNOT lose from people who have since passed on.

In relation to shared documents, etc. you have to go into the chat on Google Messages and click on Details. You will see the files there along with an option to change the chat colors (also available in the menu)

[@jackies_world]

Correct! I hate when videos miss some of these key things because it skews the opinion of those who don't know how to figure this stuff out on their own. But since they're here, I hope a "useful features" kind of video is in their algorithm now and will eventually show them how.

As Samsung user for 10 years. Samsung app messages is better than Google messages. No privacy on google messages.

[@dantehudnall1110]

Dumb question, but I really like how the Samsung emojis are and if I switch will I still keep the Samsung emojis because I'm on a Samsung phone or will it go to Googles emojis because it's on Google messages?

[@OmarIssaAttar]

You can see all the shared photos and documents in Google messages as well. You just have to go to the Details screen

[@Techier868]

The only thing that Google has over Samsung is the reactions, because Samsung's link to Windows also allows you to access your text messages from your computer. Also for some reason on Google messages I have quite a few messages that do not get sent, and i have to switch to sms for it to go through 🤷🏾‍♀️

[@Dre_jr]

6:47 you can do this on Google messages under details tab. Extra button click but still there

[@dalast1woke]

You can check all the files that you send on Google messages by clicking detail. It will show all the media files that you shared.

[@GBamaBoy]

The Google message is pre-loaded with the new Samsung phones. I used it for two weeks but it was basic. I'll missed the reaction feature but Samsung is so customizable. The reminder feature and the theme selections is hard to beat on Samsung messages.

[@YosoiJavi]

Here is the fun part...Google Messages has Gemini especially on Samsung phones...it's like a love letter to all Android fans

[@tetepage87]

Idk nor do I even understand what that is

[@oscaru5342]

Google messages is so much superior to Samsung messages that even Samsung is selling all it's new phones with Google messages as it's default messaging app. Why do you think that is..? Real simple, because of RCS.

[@jthegemini8691]

I like Samsung because its way customizable than Google. I like Google because you can react to a messages with an emoji like iphones and on top of that the emojis come to life when you send it lil small detail like that is what i enjoy. Also Google's spam protection is another plus Ive been using Google as of late but if Samsung can get the emoji reaction ill definitely switch back. Also the AI feature implemented into Google messages is another win for Google

[@Yinzzy656]

Might be more customizable but it's ugly.

[@VirtualCreativity]

8:15 is shows only in notification. Not in chat.

One key feature (atleast to me) in Samsung Messages is the ability to select partial text from the SMS. Google doesn't iffer this feature. Another important aspect of Samsung is that the SMS sync with "Phone Link" on Windows.

I would like Google just for the reactions. But there's so much more in Samsung that keeps me with it.

Thank you AppX for making a true side by side comparison in your video. All other videos I checked are very messy in comparing. Thumbs up to you!

While both messaging apps show room for improvement regarding this feature, Samsung Messages is the only one to conveniently use the name of the respective SIM in a small popup and where you can easily switch between the SIM. All of this is not possible in Google and hence a deal-breaker. Also, I do not like Google's comic style menu screens.

[@hilmarkoerner2603]

same here edit: odd, when I do not have it as default the chat features show up.

[@novadon4729]

As for the "chat features" on Samsung messages, it depends on your carrier. Some carriers have it, while others don't. So that might be the reason you are not getting it. As for the color changes on Google messages, you have to be chatting with someone who also has RCS enabled for this option to be available to you. For instance, If you are chatting with a Non-RCS user, messages will detect it as a regular Text messages, so the color option won't be available. As for the "Hold to react" I cant help you with that, because it's supposed to function for you even while chatting with Non-RCS users.

[@HotGates]

@@novadon4729 Thanks but I think Samsung is getting rid of messages because I used to have those features and now I don't, As far as Google messages hold to react it's only between android phones and when I get a message from friends with iPhone it won't work.

Another difference in features is Message Scheduling. I used to use Samsung messages but switched to Google. Sammy has a 6-minute limit for scheduling messages. Google has no limit. With Google, I can schedule a message at 12:48PM to be sent out at 12:50PM. Samsung doesn't allow this; it would tell me the message can only be sent out at least 6 minutes ahead of the current time.

One thing that I switched back from Google Message to Samsung because Google can't turn off notification per contact like Samsung can. There are many spam message that you can't block because it's not a number and none of them both can block that kind. So turning off the notification per contact is the only way you don't get disturbed by useless spam message. Google can't do that.

Samsung cloud vs google drive ?

[@ThePhoneFuel]

Thanks for the suggestion.. Will check if I can do it

[@megacarne2676]

Wish Google would bring back the Personal and Business category for text messages instead of having them all in one spot

[@mycrazyn7129]

Awesome but RCS for Samsung does not want to work on my phone

[@_khanfiroz_]

Konsa model hai😅

[@JanImrek]

Also on Samsung messages you can select text with your S-Pen and copy that selected text, on Google messages you cannot, you can just copy the whole message

RCS messaging all the way 💯

[@alvarez321]

I don't know if Samsung supports RCS in another countries, but they definitely don't have it here in the US

[@shantellebarnett2592]

@@alvarez321 The only way to have RCS with Samsung is if you get your device with a carrier such as AT&T or T-Mobile. If you get your device directly from Samsung there is no RCS support in Samsung messages. I've used RCS in Samsung messages with AT&T but when I would send photos or videos, I would have to turn Wi-Fi off in order for it to be sent. Right now, I'm using a device directly from Samsung so to use RCS I would have to use Google messages.

[@Quicksilver_007]

They had support in india but it was revoked few months ago

[@NoBodyO2TheG]

From the UK at the moment and I and a lotta people I know, have it. If it's there for you but you press to turn it on but nothing happens, install Google messages, turn on rcs feature in that with your number, then turn it on in the samsung messages and it should turn on. You can then delete google messages.

[@Quicksilver_007]

@@NoBodyO2TheG i dnt see the rcs option in samsung message probably they turned it off for india

[@loelee8893]

I switched to google messages because with samsung's, I can't find the option to view when the message was actually sent to me vs the time I received them on my device. For example when I don't have reception or when I turned off my phone and I received the message after opening it. I don't know if that info is already available to samsung messages because I'm not using it since 2019.

Google for the win

[@rikko47]

Also I do like that Samsung search bar is better and I like the fact that you can see all the attachments in each chat instead of them being grouped together like Google messages, even though I think Google is also great

[@jackies_world]

If you click search, it's the same thing just one more click for Google messages

[@rikko47]

@jackies_world I know but it's every chat Attachment at once, vs for example If I want to see Julie attachments I can go in her text message thread and see all the photos she's ever sent, instead of a Huge group of attachments I have to sort thru.

[@roshansamrobert]

Samsung all the way

Long time galaxy user here over 10+ years and I use Google messages and samsung keyboard I like how you used the corresponding keyboard with the messaging app

[@ZoomkingS23]

Nice!

Thanks!

[@YouKnowItIsBlue]

I use Samsung cuz it was pre-installed and it's design looks better to me, even the app icon I don't like the Google icons
