Google has quietly deprecated the Messages and Dialer apps in AOSP, and it could have ramifications for upstart brands and custom ROM fans.

I’m using LineageOS. A new dialer app wouldn’t be that hard (not needed on a tablet) and there are plenty of messaging apps.

LineageOS already uses their own version of these apps. They do not use AOSP Dialer or Messages.

Great. I was unclear on what the default is after Signal deprecated sms support so I had to pick something else to handle them.
