The guys at Google do not stop testing their different services until they find which is the one that best suits users' needs. In recent years, the search giant has launched different platforms to try to rival WhatsApp, Telegram, Line, Apple Messages… But he hasn't got even a fraction of the pie.
Furthermore, as it is continually making changes, users are not willing to try each and every experiment the company does. A few months ago, and to try to reach a greater number of users, Google stated that his messaging application would reach computer desktops. Although later than might have been expected, Android Messages are now available via the web.
Google's stubbornness by not wanting to launch a platform via the web to expand the use of its messaging application, caused this it will not be positioned as a platform to take into account among users who need a multiplatform messaging service such as Telegram, Apple Messages or, without going any further, WhatsApp through WhatsApp Web.
To be able to use Android Messages, we must visit the web messages.android.com with the Chrome, Firefox or Opera browser. Next, we must scan the QR code from the application itself that appears on the screen so that the chats are synchronized with our smartphone. As we can see, the operation is very simple and similar to what WhatsApp Web offers us.
The problem with this type of connection is that we must always have our device on at all timesAs we turn it off, it will lose the connection, so like the solution that WhatsApp Web offers us, it is a half-baked and quite sloppy solution, it must be said.
