I cant believe I am posting about this, but ever since I updated my phone to Pie, I have had nothing but problems on my Galaxy S9+

- First off, edge lighting does NOT work for Android Messages, I tested this multiple times, as soon as I switch back to Samsung Messages, edge lighting starts working again.
This was not an issue on Oreo

- Second, notifications do not appear on my Galaxy Watch when I am also using Android Messages. Once again, this was not an issue on Oreo.

- Third issue is my alarm. Whenever my alarm goes off in the morning, it does not play my "alarm tone" instead I just hear a really weird ticking noise..not sure if anyone else is experiencing this.
I have noticed all these issues AFTER I upgraded to Pie.

When I switch to Samsung Messages, my edge lighting works, my notifications appear on my watch, but the main reason I enjoy using Android Messages is because they offer messages for web.
I am a busy guy, I am always in the office working away, and its nice to reply to my SMS messages via my PC, if Samsung could implement something similar, that would be really cool, but not holding my breath.

try uninstalling android messages and reinstall it again. Worst case scenario is to back up your phone with smart switch and factory reset your phone.
