Hey, I have recently switched to S21FE. Dew to some reasons I had to visit samsung service center a few days back. They recommend me to reinstall my device software. After some time I noticed there is a parallel default messaging app available on my device even I didn't install any app regarding message. Does anyone know about this.Iam in a fix right now.

Turn on ur PC...
Take ur phone and usb wire but dont connect it now.

Turn on developer option in ur phone.
Turn on USB debugging.
Connect ur device with computer with USB.
Open command in PC.
Type .. "adb devices"
Ur device may show up there. *If not then u have to install some tools in ur Pc.

After that. ..
Type ..
"adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.google.android.apps.messaging"
And press enter

And done
