I'm going by memory here, but I'd double tap and hold on the Messages icon in your dock. Without lifting your finger, slide the Messages icon out of the dock and to some other place on your home page. If you want to remove it from your home pages altogether, find the Remove icon and slide it over that. Once the icon is where you want it, remove your finger.

For the Messenger app, if you don't have it on the home screen then find it in the App Drawer and do a double tap and hold. This should place it on your home screen. Now you can double tap and hold on the Messenger icon and without lifting your finger, move it to the space you just created in the dock and lift your finger.

Hello,

I'm using Touch wiz on my s7. I've installed the google messenger app.
I like it and want to use it as my default  message app replacing
samsung messages app.

I use to be able to go to settings, applications, default applications
and set that in marshmallow. I am not seeing the equivalent place in
Nougat.

My second item is I'd like to replace the messages shortcut in my dock
with messenger. I've long pressed on messages in the dock and not
finding a way to replace.

Suggestions welcome.

Thanks.
Dave.
