This is awesome even though i typically use Threema or Signal for non apple to apple messages
I’m extremely happy about this. I have friends and some family who have Pixel/Samsung so chatting will be much better. I liked RCS in Google Messages.
Just use WhatsApp?
I shouldn’t have too?
You do realise you’re complaining about not having a platform to talk to them because they don’t have iMessage and WhatsApp clearly solves your problem. Plus for rcs integration you’re gonna have to wait another year
I’d say just use Signal, but nobody listens.
Anyway, RCS is a big deal, and a good thing, overall.
That meta trash. You know they MITM’d that shit.
I swear there’s a new one of these every day
They should totally change it to blue.
I think it should be a completely different color. Maybe orange. Having green mean two different things isn’t cool.
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.
lol this is the first time I’ve seen Google messages in …years? Maybe a decade?
Honesty if android had a data based messaging app that was as smooth and seamless and I message, I’d probably make the switch back.
I enjoyed alot of things android but as I got older ease of use and functionality are #1 priority
It is better than imassage and works on all devices. Thanks apple for making photos look shit when sending from android to ios
What are those features? I never understood what’s so special about iMessages
But that actually is the Google Messaging app. I have iPhone 15PM and Google Pixel 6 Pro and I honestly can’t see anything different between messages in android and iMessage. If you have RCS enabled on android, your messages do become data based, you get typing notifications, read receipts, can send pictures and videos over internet.
I don’t understand it myself, both are so similar, android messaging is android to android and iMessage is iPhone to iPhone. They can both easily do what the other can, so this whole thing makes no sense to me
iMessage can reply to messages with stickers and play games
What happened ?
RCS support in iMessage
The end…
Source: everyone outside of North America
Everybody out of USA are gone still using WhatsApp
I had to use WhatsApp for a group chat once. I’ll never go back to it
Google just ended google messages
Most people use WhatsApp anyway on my side of the world 😂. Doesn’t really matter for me 🤣.
ok
Genuinely never thought or noticed this before. Now it’s going to bug me every time I see the Messages icon
list of messager i dont use
Except the green ones aren’t necessarily Android users.
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)
