I'm not enjoying the app because of the advertising stuff always popping up, and I'd like it if you could stop all the necessary advertising popping up on this app. As I'm not able to do the things you can do to stop advertising popping up as I'm so stupid that stuff I'm so afraid as I get so confused and upset. As things don't register to me. Or I'll have to delete the app. But I'd rather not. So thanks to you if you can remove the advertising stuff for me. Please.

I did not download this app, yet every time I open my preferred choice of Samsung messenger, this app opens and blocks my whole screen telling me that I must choose Google messenger or as of June, almost 3 months ago, I will no longer be able to message on my phone. Which is not true, as I am still using Samsung messenger. I have an older Android phone that allows my old app to keep working. I just have to work around the Annoying Google pop-up telling me to convert now or lose messenger.
