I rate Google Play over the 1 through 10 system Overton now to my new cricket phone that I purchased after purchasing it from the free government phones it's totally awesome, and it works even better Bluetooth wise and adaptation to maps and other Google applications thank you cricket

Put the sim card labels on messages to differentiate the sim cards if both of them are of the same network as Safari com.

I can't quickly reply to texts via the status bar. Every time I type and send a text from there it doesn't work. Please fix this. It's a really good shortcut, easier than opening the app every time.

I can't see any responses to my family group text chat. They can see my text, but I can't see any of their responses. They all have iPhones and I have a Samsung S22 Ultra Android phone. I went through the app and checked all my settings and toggled them on and off after writing this. I checked it early this morning, and it still wasn't working so was going to uninstall and reinstall. Then at about 10 am this morning all of a sudden I received 139 text messages, and it started working again.

★★☆☆☆ Joseph Pryor · Aug 21, 2026

I like being able to pin conversations, but why is it possible to accidentally swipe to archive a pinned conversation? Even if you click undo in time it doesn't restore the pin!!! I have no idea which of my pinned conversations I just lost!

I kept getting messages my phone would automatically switch to Google messages by July 6th and my other messages would transfer over automatically. That absolutely didn't happen and now trying to find my prescription isn't working because I don't have all the messages

★☆☆☆☆ Stefan B · Aug 21, 2026

Probably the worst spam blockers I've ever experienced. I am constantly spammed with messages that the filter refuses to block. EDIT: Yeah I know how to block messages, the problem is that most spam centers use spoofed numbers so blocking the numbers individually actually doesn't help at all they will just generate new ones. Fix your spam system instead of blaming the users.
