Anonymous, 03 Mar 2017Why would you want to even use it if it has sms Android Me... morei use android messages now and it is simple and great. and you are right, but still messages doesn't have all the features. Allo has a better design and themes, i want a dark theme to save battery not stress my eyes which Allo has. if Allo get Sms support it will be better than messages. the problem with RCS in messages while it has potential, it is still new and will take years to become a universal standard. Allo is a cross-platform app and with a push from google can be as good as whatsapp someday, but with SMS support it will be a one solution app for messaging for many users.

      I like Google, I really do but man their messaging platforms are just bordering in schizophrenia. Why didn't they bought an already popular platform with encryption by default, integrate it with all their services with tiers for professionals and regular users and call it a day.

        These assistants can only answer questions related to weather ?? Why they always do the same stupid demos.

          Android Messages has SMS and is dedicated for that
          Assistant is no longer an exclusive, so Allo is going worse than Hangouts and google plus

            All this still won't make me use Allo. as long as there is no SMS support then this is nothing more than chatbot toy, so no thanks google. This will fail and will be removed by google after 2 years.
