iMessage for Android. Even in this new reality where Apple intends to adopt RCS, it’s still something that people want...

Hopefully this becomes the app that ends this nonsensical “blue bubble” supremacy by iSheep.

The issue isnt really the color, it’s that all images and video are degraded in quality. That means android users are excluded from iphone group chats. This is a bug deal in America where iphones are incredibly popular.

I think it’s fair to be excited that people are working on ways to bridge the divide. Especially when the technical aspects of the reverse engineering is pretty cool. Not to mention the proof of concept was originally made by a high school student!
