Yes but the tweet says that Google 1) completely removed the app and 2) is ignoring their calls for support. Which seems to be false.

Yes, notice that it’s several hours since the tweet. They’ve obviously been able to work around issue after issue, but the problem still exists: they are a companion app and should not have been forced to remove the SMS feature. And as far as I can tell, google is still not supporting them, so how is that false?

1) They did, until he removed core functionality and re-uploaded

2) They are, hence the removal of functionality and re-upload

I’m unsure how what was stated is false?
