Google Messenger: A Streamlined SMS Experience

Google Messenger is the official SMS messaging app, replacing the older text management application. Unlike Hangouts, it focuses solely on traditional text messages (SMS), not Google's instant messaging service.

Despite its SMS-only functionality, Messenger boasts several useful features. You can easily block unwanted numbers directly within the app, preventing further messages. Additionally, you can schedule "Do Not Disturb" periods to silence incoming texts. The app's interface is significantly improved compared to its predecessor, offering a cleaner, more elegant design. Furthermore, you can send photos and videos directly to your contacts.

Messenger provides a reliable and user-friendly way to manage your text messages, backed by Google's reputation for secure content handling.
