It's kind of amazing it works. I'm not clean bubble anymore.
Has anyone else tried this?
Freaking brilliant.
You're viewing a single thread.
Why do people care so much about the color of their bubbles?
It's not about the color. It's about not destroying photo and video quality or breaking messages into multiple parts and sending them out of order.
This Android app fixes those issues? That’s actually really impressive!
Only Apple fanboys care. I've heard from them that green bubbles are for poor people. It's kinda funny they how brainwashed some of them are. Although I will concede that SMS sucks compared to Apple's and the equivalent apps on android are to fractured for consistency.
Only Apple fans caring seems to me a paradox. If that were the case no such Android application would exist.
It bugs me (and is sometimes problematic which is largely why it bugs me) when messages send via SMS instead of RCS on Android too.
I know it's cool to hate on Apple and their users though, damn sheep.
Also I'm skeptical anyone who wasn't trolling actually said it was for poor people. That sounds like something something would just say about Apple fanboys. Although if they did say that and you were in person I hope you slapped them in the face.
I’ve been using iOS for 15-20 years and have never heard anyone talk about bubbles. In fact, everyone I know has a 3rd party client installed to ensure chatting acrosd platforms is easy. If someone is giving you crap about the color of a bubble you don’t actually see on Android, they probably just don’t like you and are using the bubble as an excuse. They’re not worth your time. (Or they’re just joking around.)
It’s just strange to me that Android users have such a need to fix a thing that only apple users notice, and only Apple fanboys might actually care about.
This too.
A friend of mine explained why it's important to his kids: they can't chat with a group of their friends.
Why? Because parents don't want to install WhatsApp or other group chats due to legitimate concerns about scammers, pedophiles, and other child predators. SMS chat fills that gap, but it breaks horribly for groups bigger than 10 people. Hence if some kid is on Android, they break their chat. Given the penetration of Apple devices, it's the kids with Android who are considered at-fault. "Just get an iPhone!"
Welcome to anticompetitive practices targeted at your children.
Because people are stupid, that's why.
👍 Sadly, yes
Its not thr colour its because with media that isnt apple to apple conveniently downgrades quality. Its why so many apple people believe androids have shit cameras.
Why not just use a different chat app? I have like 3 installed to accommodate people from different regions.
Edit. The very next reply answered this. Sorry.
I try to get everyone to use signal with varying levels of success
Sigh.
Again, because it indicates the quality of the connection and degraded functionality on iPhone. It makes group chats less functional.
So to Apple users it's an easy way to see it's going to frustrating to deal with.
Huh. When I communicate with Android friends, I just don’t use iMessage to make sure communication is solid. That’s an Apple problem as far as I’m concerned, but good on Android users for finding a way to make things a little nicer for Apple users I guess.
No it's apparently everyone is stupid but Apple users are extra stupid and anyone who says otherwise is a shill
How else are they gonna flex the phone that cost them 2 months of income?
By taking excellently processed photographs and sharing them on social media. At least that’s what I’d do!
