Samsung is ditching their own messaging app on the Galaxy Z Flip 6 and Z Fold 6 in the US.

The company has been slowly phasing out Samsung Messages since the 2022 launch of the S22 in favor of Google Messages, but it still pre-installed the app on their devices so users could opt for the platform if they chose.


“The Samsung Messages app will no longer be preloaded, starting with Flip 6, Fold 6, and newer models. Instead, Google Messages will provide a new and enhanced experience to express your emotions, making communication safe and fun.” a post from Samsung Member app stated.

Those who still prefer to use Samsung Messages will be able to download it from the Galaxy Store, where it is still available.


According to reports, those buying the phones in Canada or Europe will still get the Samsung Messages app pre-installed.
