I asked if people chose iPhone for the blue bubbles elsewhere a couple days ago, and while there was some good discourse on that post, the blue bubbles definitely also came up as a reason.
In my experience, when people find out my texts are green, they oftentimes would rather switch to a different platform altogether like Instagram or just not text at all.
Is this actually a deal-breaker in friendships out there?
When on Apple and texting another apple user the text bubbles are one color. When texting any other brand it shows up another color. So iPhone users can act like dicks because they are the in crowd when messaging eachother.
The thing is no one is using built-in messengers outside of US. So yeah, we don’t know anything about bubbles.
They can interact with their messages in more ways than others. Direct message reactions (like, heart) and they can see the dot-dot-dot when another iPhoner was typing. I actually had a girl give me a hard time over this because she was iPhone and I’m android.
I have an android and can react to text messages and see when other ppl do. I also see the dots when someone else is typing, but that’s only if they’re also on Android. To me neither of those features makes or breaks a phone for me.
I’m comfortable on the android platform and I absolutely refuse to spend a thousand dollars on a phone. NO feature is worth that much to me.
I’m on Android, I can see both direct message reactions,
...when people are typing, and see when people have seen my message.This is all a part of the text message standard that every modern phone follows.
Apple are the only major company that don’t follow the RCS standard.
As I said acting like a dick.
Liked “direct message reactions (like, heart)”
