As early as September 28, 2023, SMS messages will no longer be available when you update your Messenger app.

Was anybody actually using this? I honestly forgot this was a supported feature. This is coming from someone who is still not happy about Signal dropping SMS support.

I did for a bit many years ago for the chat heads support. IIRC I ended up switching to Textra, which also had chat heads before deciding I didn't care for the feature enough when I moved to QKSMS.

I loved Textra. It's not their fault, but I really love RCS support, and right now that's basically Google Messages and a handful of preinstalled carrier messenger apps (if I'm not mistaken). I loved adding a 3 second delay on sending texts - I always seem to see typos as/after I hit send. πŸ˜‚

I used to love QKSMS! I use the stock app on my Pixel these days, but back in the day QK was my go-to. Moez is a great dev.

Google Messages has chat bubble support, for what it's worth.

Upvoted but I've since grown out of this feature. I now also like delaying message alerts for the sake of digital hygiene!
