- Samsung Messages is getting ready to add a bunch of new features in One UI 8.
- Samsung had previously announced that it’s sunsetting app, but code evidence indicated it’s only getting more powerful.
- The app could soon gain live location sharing, birthday reminders, reactions, and more.
Samsung is funny. When the Galaxy S25 series launched, the company repeatedly told users it was sunsetting Samsung Messages. The app was removed from the Google Play Store, with Samsung making it clear that it wanted people to use Google Messages instead. However, instead of fully killing off its messaging app, Samsung has not only kept it alive on the Galaxy Store and allowed existing users to continue using it, but it is also continuously adding new features to make the experience more robust.
