I never thought I’d see this day. I thought we’d get aliens on the White House lawn before Apple ever caved.

I hope it works seamlessly but, more importantly, will the bubbles all be blue once RCS is added? Will we be able to turn off read receipts and typing indicators?

    Holy shit do people actually care about the text bubble colors even you have RCS functions? We’re doomed as a species.

      In North America, yes. There are tons of people who refuse to date other people if they have an android phone. A study was conducted and people with iPhone were 4x more likely to get a date after texting the other person.

        North America is The Good Place.

        Also it’s a great way to filter out vile people anyway.
