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?
Wow, now that’s a deal breaker. I guess I’ll have to buy the iPhone I don’t even care about now.
Yes the only reason I know it’s because I’ve had to explain it to confused iphone users at work who get all precious when a message is a green. I normally run Android but my work phone is an iPhone (because it’s helpful to know them when you have to support them) and I just disable iMessage.
