To use Google messages you must sign in to one of your google accounts, even though that was not a requirement until today that I know of or was aware of.

    Ok good, let’s delete Google message…ass

    Ahh fuck. Another shitty google tactic! This should be so fucking illegal!

      I can’t delete the app because some fuck ass at google made it impossible to delete, that’s why!

      Fuck google!

      You find yourself a glass beer bottle in the mud, break it, glue the shards on to a toilet plunger stick, and you fuck Google! This is the new way of viewing google. It’s a fuck ass company. You see any software or hardware with that shit for name and you walk away. No , better, run. Run away.

        For clarity, that message appears on all system apps which can be disabled. Even apps like the calculator will show it.

        The reason system apps can only be disabled and not uninstalled is because they’re shipped as part of the OS. Unless you’re rooted, the OS is read-only, making traditional uninstallation (deleting the app data) impossible. What disabling does is effectively just tell the phone to ignore that the app exists and to just not load it.

        Also keep in mind that if you do as root uninstall a system app, it often comes back on any system update because many updaters work by simply redownloading a fresh, full OS image.

          Ok try me…I’m not a a superficial script kiddy. The reason for bundling is not mere coincidence or convenience for the user. The reason is to provide a monopoly for Google. I didn’t complain until now because I’ve never been asked to login with my google account to use sms and now I am being asked for that. Meaning that they are trying to connect my conversations with my identity. First let us provide you with an sms client that never fails, if it fails, just download the system again and it’s fixed! Surprise! We’re training a war robot in Chinese thanks to your Chinese conversations for the past 5 years! Oh and here’s the cheapest BBQ…you keep talking to your dad about BBQ and his bday is Saturday and we know you’re a cheapskate…but lol actually it’s 5% higher price, we just show you 10% higher prices for everything else except for the BBQ you looked at on Firefox like 10 times before… Gemini takes screenshots and tells us what you see in words.

          Their monopoly is evil. But you can easily explain to me that it is for my convenience actually. What a fucking dummy I am! Ofcourse! But how come they didn’t bundle Pac-Man!? I wish packman was bundled so I could play it and it would never fail.
