Get rid of sidebar that pops up that goes to videos

[Android Central Question]

A sidebar started popping up on the left and I can't get rid of it. It says it's a widget setting but it's only in the GO SMS app. How do I get rid of this?

Welcome to Android Central! It sounds like it's a "feature" of Go SMS. If you can't find a setting for it, then you probably can't turn it off. If it bothers you too much, consider changing to a different messaging app. Or send an email to the developer: gosmsprofeedback@gmail.com

Same issue, latest update.

Workaround:

Settings > Apps > GO SMS Pro >
(Advanced) Draw over other apps >
No

Go to settings - applications - Go sms Pro - scroll down clear defaults that's all there is to it.
