@leonoverweel @viticci There is no indication that you can fully replace the app and get your texts in another app. You can set whatsapp as your default app, delete Messages and that's it based on today's announcement

@leonoverweel @viticci I don't doubt that they did. Eu asked to delete default apps and they got it. Call it malicious compliance if you want @leonoverweel @dt @viticci This is gonna cause a lot of confusion especially for elderly people. Previously you could jist set-up the iPhone and IT JUST WORKED. Now I'm gonna be the tech support in our family like I used to (when my fam members used androids and always messed up something in settings)... @d4v @leonoverweel @viticci I think you could use the Restrictions menu to block this, but this requires extra setup |
@dt @viticci if you delete the Messages app, you need some way to receive SMS messages right? I doubt theyβd let you stop your phone from being able to receive SMS messages by deleting Messages without there being some way for other apps to be able to fill that functionality gap.
