Whats the Best app for texting on a Samsung galaxy mobile phone with NO adds & extremely secure service

If you are talking messaging, Google Messemger is a good alternative, sometimes Ssmsung recommends this in preference to their own app for some devices in some countries.

If ypu are talking other texting apps you will get good advice by Googling "best android ( os Samsung) free text apps. Some of these will be in Play Store, meaning you won't have to change your settings to allow non Play Store apps.

Thanks for your reply
I have been trying to get the most secure app to & is free with NO ADDS
I did have the option that my family had but I reset my phone and I have not found it
It has been what I have been using for years now I don't have the history of my messages
I am a big user of what's app when I am required to use it but swear by SIGNAL but hard to change people's minds at times

As @Troubadour said, if you are looking for SMS app, the best alternative is "Message by Google" aka Google Messages. It might be pre-installed already in your phone, but if not, you can download it in Playstore.

If you're looking for other messaging app like Whatsapp, FB Messenger etc that is secure, you can try "Signal". That's the most secure app that is free in my opinion. You can download it also in Playstore.

Just note that your other contacts should be using the same app for you to communicate to each other.

No doubt Google messages with RCS enabled..

[johnnybeGood02]

But it's got adds unless you pay
Is that correct

No man, no adds in Google messages. Make sure you are getting the so from reputable, trusted app store.
