Even as professional seekers of novelty in apps and services, we, at Android Authority, can\u2019t always keep up with everything. And so it\u2019s nice when companies make the effort to publicize new changes, and that\u2019s what Google plans to do with Google Messages, too. Just better.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019re reading an <strong>Authority Insights<\/strong> story. Authority Insights brings you all the latest exclusive reports, app teardowns, leaks, and in-depth tech coverage from the Android Authority team that you won\u2019t find anywhere else.<\/p>\n<p>While Google frequently shares emails about what\u2019s new in Android \u2014 and lets Pixel users specifically discover what\u2019s new in each monthly Drop, we don\u2019t quite get updates on individual apps, such as Google Messages. To fix that, Google is testing a new \u201cofficial chat,\u201d not just a broadcast channel, where you can chat about the messenger\u2019s latest features.<\/p>\n<p>Hidden under the code of the recent Google Messages open beta version, we\u2019ve spotted references to the official chat. We were also able to work our way through to activating it to give you a preview.<\/p>\n<p>Essentially, the feature will first appear as a card at the top of the messages list for users, giving them the option to either \u201cAccept\u201d or \u201cReject\u201d the invitation to join the chat. If they choose the former, a new RCS chat will be initiated where they can communicate with the chatbot, presumably an AI-powered one, to know about new features. While it doesn\u2019t immediately share news about anything new or exciting, we anticipate messages coming when the feature goes online officially.<\/p>\n<p>Unlike&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/google-messages-chat-updates-3680762\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Google could soon let you message Google Messages about Google Messages https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/google-messages-chat-updates-3680762\/ Publish Date: 2026-06-24&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":280214,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/google-messages-logo-feb-2026-hero-1-scaled.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[46],"tags":[70,72],"class_list":["post-280213","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-android","tag-google","tag-pixel"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/280213"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=280213"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/280213\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":280215,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/280213\/revisions\/280215"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/280214"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=280213"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=280213"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=280213"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
