The android or google whatevr it is actually looks good green
As someone who uses both iphone and Android… Both use green bubbles. The imessage bubbles are green of you are using celular instead of internet to send messages.
Blue = iMessage. If it’s green, it was SMS, soon it will be RCS. When you don’t have a strong internet connection, depending on your settings, messages will revert to SMS. When you see the green, even if it’s to another iPhone, it is NOT iMessage and is NOT secure (sms is sent plain text)
Me and my girl already use FB Messenger. What good does this bring us?
Well believe it or not, you can text other people than your girlfriend.
Google just ended google messages
This is awesome even though i typically use Threema or Signal for non apple to apple messages
Except the green ones aren’t necessarily Android users.
Genuinely never thought or noticed this before. Now it’s going to bug me every time I see the Messages icon
The end…

I had to use WhatsApp for a group chat once. I’ll never go back to it
Everybody out of USA are gone still using WhatsApp
still no game pigeon for them tho
list of messager i dont use
I don’t give a damn. You really making this so much big a deal but completely ignoring that billions of people across USA border doesn’t care.
And the US will get this benefit thanks to the EU
Even if you don’t understand the blue bubble thing, (aka not in the US), arcs is still important as it’s much more secure than SMS, so one time codes from banks and other things should be harder for hackers to get.
Why would we want two apps. That’s ridiculous.
With the announcement of RCS for iOS. I would actually appreciate the option to change the colour of my chat bubbles. If something is sms or iMessage, it usually says so above the first message or if it decides to switch because of something like signal strength
No, it just means that Android messages will show a few more things (like read status).
But the green and blue colors will remain because iMessage supports more iOS-specific features.
