Once you start using the Messenger app, you’ll get a notification asking you if you want to use it, just tap the “Try Now” button.
Getting access to the feature couldn’t be easier. While the app is nice, not many people know that it also offers the option of sending and receiving messages from your computer, in a browser, much like WhatsApp does. It can be downloaded for free here, in the Google Play Store. This is a nice uncluttered option, which is the default on the company’s Pixel devices. However, Google offers a free alternative called Messages. If you’re an Android smartphone user, your phone’s manufacturer will probably have its own text messaging app preinstalled on your device. Here is a look at getting it set up and what you can expect. The best part is that it’s web-based so you can use it on any device with a web browser. So, if you’re a texting addict, this should make things much easier for you. Google’s Messages App for Android now allows you to manage your text messages on your computer. Google’s “Messages on the Web” feature allows you to send and receive texts right from your PC, Chromebook, or Mac without digging out your phone.
