Google updated the Messages app last year with an inline reply feature for responding directly to a specific message in a conversation. However, it requires users to have RCS enabled as part of Google's effort to convince carriers and developers to make RCS the standard messaging method despite existing compatibility issues with iOS devices. Direct reply is perhaps one of the most useful features to arrive on Google Messages' Android app in recent times, and it has finally landed on the web.

There's a catch, though. Like its Android version, this capability is only available in chats where you've enabled RCS. For SMS and MMS threads, you'll only see the three-dot menu when you hover over a message.
