It’s kind of amazing it works. I’m not clean bubble anymore.

Has anyone else tried this?

Freaking brilliant.

    I thought the point of Android was that we don’t like to conform to the walled garden. Why is there such an obsession with jumping Apple’s fence? Might as well get an iPhone then

    I don’t get this… I have both an Android phone and an iPhone. Mesaging back and forth shows gray on both sides.

      The color that changes is the one of the sender on iMessage. If you message an iPhone user your bubbles are blue and over iMessage, and if you message an Android user your messages are green and over SMS.

        Aha, now it makes sense. So an iPhone to iPhone message is blue, iPhone to Android is green.

        Still don’t see what difference it makes.

          Less features, teens do social ostracization, and adding a non-iPhone into a group chat makes the group chat worse so Android users don’t get added to group chats, etc.

    I don’t talk to anyone via phone messaging, let alone Apple proprietary messaging.

      Good for you. I’d love to get people onto cross-platform comms. XMPP today is functional on mobile. Hell, it was ten years ago.

      Why are you here again?
