Here is a statement by an FP employee:

@borjan

The old SMS app (also called Messaging) which has the green chat icon with a white smiley, was deprecated mid-2016. Since then, the Google Messenger app - with a blue/purple rounded icon - was shipped (and was default on new installations) but both were present until now.
With Android 6, the old SMS app is not provided anymore, but the SMS are still there and accessible by any SMS app. The Google Messenger app is installed on the phone by default but you can still install another app.

PS:
No idea what you mean by the following, but that’s probably another topic.

Now if they could fix away that enlarged page with orange frame if you tap the screen twice. WTF is that for? Sometimes it happens when you have the phone against your ear!

Maybe a screenshot could help.
