Wow...I ... Is it actually somehow possible that these people have such easy boring lives that they go & invent yet another unbelievably STUPID petty "problem" to whine about. My toddler isn't even this dramatic on his worst days. Wth are they going to do when their fragile bubble gets popped by a real world problem 😂

    Ohh please.. I’m seeing green bubble chat when sending text to some of my friends and even all my family members and they too use an iphone.. reason being, we’re simply sending text through an actual sms not via imessages. Did it affect our mental health? NO! Did we succumbed to bullying? NO! The simple answer/solution to this is, GROW UP!🙄

      It's the mental health of the teens there, not the color of the chat bubbles. You need a good psychiatrist.

        If my so called friend is discriminating me over a green bubble, then they are not my real friends.

              Bib, 10 Jan 2022Lol really? The color is there so we know if the message is... moreit's funny that most android phones use RCS to communicate and have to use SMS to talk to iphones because apple don't know how to adopt new technology

                Bib, 10 Jan 2022Lol really? The color is there so we know if the message is... moreYes, there's absolutely no way else to indicate that other than to make the colors different. Okay then, what color does your bubble turn to when a message is received, and when it's read? Cyan and indigo, respectively?

                Weak logic!

                  I keep getting ads on YouTube those ade obvious scams. A recent one was an Elon musk video with fake voice added promoting investment for a new company he stared. Google allows these ads on their platform and let millions fall victim to these scammers and talking about mental health.

                              TheWildShadow55, 11 Jan 2022This used to be way worse in 2015 but nowadays it's on... moreNah, I flex on people who call me broke, I got a brand new A32 5g. They call me a lair for telling them its under the SE (2020) and runs better and has nearly 3x the battery capacity. Honestly, the only thing I want from imessage is the gamepigeon plugin

                                This used to be way worse in 2015 but nowadays it's only the people who still own an iPhone 6 in 2022 that are like "andriod uesr BROKE no QUALTY", almost everyone in my experience does not care

                                  iPhone can send green text messages to each other also... it doesn't just apply to Google (Android) users sending messages to iPhone users. Usually happens when you're trying to send to an iPhone that doesn't currently have data/WiFi but can still reach via their phone number through text/phone call

                                    I'm one of the rare Americans who is proud of the fact that I have an Android in a sea of iPhones. My text bubbles are green, but I can play emulators, access a file system, play back my mp3s locally, and sideload a treasure trove of FOSS apps! Can't do that on an iPhone!

                                    My cheap Moto e (2020) can do so many things that can't be done on a $1100 iPhone.
