This is nonsense. If you have a group or N text message participants you really don’t want that 1 person to be non-iOS, because it ruins the benefits of being on iMessage for everyone else. You don’t even get delivery confirmation with regular texts.
- sodality2 5y agoThis is exactly it - as a teen I am excluded from class group chats regularly as I don't have iMessage. For group chats, it really does annoy everyone because it's hard to get everyone to switch. I've relied on the fact that I help others with work to get people to switch, and I've only been able to do that for my grade's IB class (15 people) onto Instagram and WhatsApp. It sort of helps that the school is not a rich school, that way there's still others with Androids and I'm not the only one.
