    Thread Samsung Messages on Pixel 3a?

    Is it possible to run the Samsung Messages app on non-Samsung devices? I found a lot of APKs you can download, but none actually open once installed. Did a bunch of Googling and found absolutely nothing. Anyone know? Thanks!

    Thread Messages - Schedule Message option no longer there :(

    I used to rely on this feature allot. Sometimes you get an idea or want to sent a stupid comment to someone, but it's 2am. With Schedule Message you could set it to whatever time you needed and not feel guilty about it. Do we know if this is coming back? Am I missing the option somewhere? :(
