Comments on Google Messages for Android

★★★★★ Google Messages interface doesn't give me headaches and works perfectly for me! But the main thing that makes it worth it is: RCS chats make this loads more worth it, so many goodies using RCS, never had problems with RCS chats on T-Mobile, tested loads of features, and they all work perfectly for me! One of the underrated features from my point is planned messages The only thing I wished for is more color themes, and custom categories. That's it! Very solid job Google did!
