I’ve used Apple messages for years, and I’ve noticed for awhile that I do not see the same features as one would see on other messaging apps.
The number one feature I’d like to see is an archive message feature. I like having a clean inbox without deleting all of the messages. Every other messaging app that I’ve used (Signal, Android Messages, Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp, etc…) has this ability, yet Apple has never bothered to adopt this useful feature.
I’ve resorted to using the backup functionality on a computer to keep a copy of old text messages instead. It isn’t a perfect solution, but it’s good enough for now.
I’ve filed a suggestion with them years ago, but it seems like the it fell into a black hole that nobody will ever see.
Whenever I see Apple call themselves the “best” or “most advanced” - it kinda rings hollow as a long time user that hasn’t seen features added to this platform that other companies wouldn’t even think twice about adding.
What are some other features that you’ve noticed that other platforms have that Apple hasn’t even bothered to update on Messages?
