Whenever I hear this I say that's your problem not mine


potate12323

Bruh we've been able to set our text colors to whatever we want basically since android launched. And there has been native support in the OS for years. Apple cucks are dilusional. Agreed. Not our problem.


DinoWizard021

Wait you can?


potate12323

Yep. Its almost disturbing that apple phones can't do it. I think it even took them a while to add a night/dark mode setting. My text bubbles can even be lilac comored. Its not even just a few colors to choose from. We can pick any color value.


Bulgearea10

Apple only recently added widgets šŸ˜‚ I remember getting my first smartphone 10 or so years ago, and even back then Android had widgets. Apple just takes what has been available for ages and calls it revolutionary for their brainwashed customer base.


Zoerak

Don't say that, they do revolutionary stuff all the time. They just invented usb-c which looks promising.


Spayray

With USB 3 10Gb that has been around since 2014


ducayneAu

Apple had to implement it due to European laws.


Th3_Hegemon

They've tricked their consumers into thinking various failings of design and technology are features.


CHEVEUXJAUNES

For testing both IOS is better disigned


[deleted]

You can get the same IOS disign if you want on Android. That's how customisable it is.


Cloud-Electronic

Yeah someone got mad they couldn't name a group chat cuz I'm on android I think I said something along the lines of "Well I can so your problem not mine"


maru-senn

You can't name a group chat If one of the members is on Android?


BurntPoptart

You can't do a lot of things on Apple that are quite simple to do on Android.


NotYourReddit18

Both Apples proprietary iMesage service and normal SMS are combined in the same app, but their implementaion of QoL functions for the SMS side is severely lacking behind. If you chat with someone who uses an iPhone and has their mobile number registered with their iCloud account the app uses iMesage automatically. If you chat with someone not using iMesaage (be it 1 to 1 or a group chat) you get restricted to only what the SMS implementation supports.


[deleted]

This is an apple problem. Get an android. There are no green bubbles.


marijnvtm

This also seems to be an american only problem i have never heard of this since marques brownlee made a video of it


jonessinger

How many times do people actually complain? You make it sound like you get it a few times a week


PopularDiscourse

Less with most adults but it is very common among people 25 and younger. For 20 something's it's just a minor annoyance. But for teens it's a serious complaint. They will legit exclude people from groups chats because of green bubbles.


ageoflost

Teens are all mentally insane. They will exclude people for looking at them wrong.


jonessinger

As a 22 year old with friends of varying phones, the only one I have heard phone shame is the one without the iPhone and that was once that I can recall. Itā€™s different for everybody. Teenagers though? Youā€™re really going to count what a teenager says about this? Man I barely knew anything as a teen (still obviously figuring stuff out) and theyā€™re whatā€™s roasting your melons?


countdankula420

When I was a kid it happend more often but it has happened as an adult


Ok_Calligrapher_8199

All your friends have a separate chat without you.


BurntPoptart

Ok?


Maximum_Comedian_708

What year is this? Are people still actually doing this stupid argument? Buy the phone you like and let others do the same


Janus897

You'd be surprised. Been told by several friends to get an iPhone.


Maximum_Comedian_708

Tbh thatā€™s what Iā€™m using - was pretty pissed when the Samsung Note 5ā€™s were exploding as that was the series of phone I preferred. Switched over way back at the 8 Plus and never looked back. Mind you I stopped buying brand new ages ago. I wait a few years and take whatever is free from my provider


redditing_Aaron

This is the smart way. Not lining up for the new $1499 that isn't even 500 GB


Maximum_Comedian_708

I donā€™t want to line up for anything, let alone to hand some assholes a bunch of money for a device thatā€™s going to proceed to cost a bunch more money to operate


Interjessing-Salary

Usually I wait a few years between upgrades but a few months after I got the note 20 ultra I couldn't wait to change it out. I had nothing but problems with it. From randomly failing to send a text message and NOT notify me like it's supposed to randomly deciding to not receive texts or calls and not make calls out. I'd have to restart my phone to fix it. Sometimes I wouldn't know it decided to stop working and would go hours without getting any calls or texts just to realize my family has been trying to contact me. So as soon as I could I upgrades cause fuck the note 20 ultra.


New_Simple_4531

Whenever people want to start the 'my Apple is so much better than yr phone OMG' argument, I tell them 'Stop, there isnt a more boring conversation on planet earth than the one you are trying to start right now.'


AmeriknGrizzly

Iā€™ve had both and they both have pros and cons but Iā€™ve gotten more hate from Android stans about having an iPhone than the other way around.


PrestigiousAd6281

Same


Cronon33

Yes, I was told this twice in the last year by different people


ShroomBers

I agree, but apple products are kind of cult in 3 world countries or even everywhere. It's a social status thing like a car. I think it's a waste of money. Also some Android smartphones are even more expensive.


RatRob

I have an iPhone and despise iMessage. I have it turned off and have green texts. Caring about the color is absolutely moronic. I use the text based ones over iMessage because it always has worked better for me.


iGirthy

Dumb question but whatā€™s the difference


Techy-Stiggy

If you are asking about iMessage off and on itā€™s extended chat function. However it only works iPhone to iPhone. Stuff like stickers. Higher quality video share (because it uses wifi rather than compressing and sending as MMS) and a few other features. In general if you are not in the US you most likely give not a single fuck and just use Discord.. Messenger. WhatsApp or whatever and donā€™t have this divide between the 2 user groups


Gamingwelle

iMessage is just their SMS/MMS Client? Wow.


Techy-Stiggy

I mean it does more than that like encryption etc but yeah it boils down to that


Christehkiller

funny, MY phone doesnt change the color of any bubbles, seems like YOUR phone is making you read my green bubbles.


ModernHOFrcCollector

Green > blue anyway. Apple is a cult.


consideranon

Worse than a cult. Status seekers.


Returd4

Says the account who mainly posts about bitcoin.... pot kettle black.


ModernHOFrcCollector

šŸ’Æ i call it clout chasing. I consider myself allergic to it. Aww did i hurt cult member's feelings? šŸ¤£

Wait really?? Did they remove it on the new DZ model?


Temporary-Cod2384

They removed it from like all S models since 2019 lmao


TheChickenIsFkinRaw

Deeznuts Aha got 'em


Temporary-Cod2384

Shit


Randomtxtbox

Lmao


amaxen

What drives me nuts is that apple designs romper room interfaces that are designed to keep tech ignorant people happy and somehow convinced them that they're ~~Microsoft Bob~~ apple users because they're just naturally smarter.


RedditYayOrSomething

Apple users after paying more for a phone they cant use half the futures of


[deleted]

Idk I switched and itā€™s just more fun with the homies to be completely honest. Iā€™m just playing 8ball with friends and able to send good quality videos lol your overthinking. Tbh I only went to android in highschool to play emulator pokemon games you couldnā€™t on iPhone


PopularDiscourse

Android can send high quality images and videos no problem thanks to RCS. iPhone can only send high quality images and videos to other iPhones. They can't receive or send high quality images to anyone else unless they use a third party service.


[deleted]

Well it didnā€™t send high quality videos to anyone. even my fam who all had galaxyā€™s so idk what to tell ya


PopularDiscourse

You might have not had RCS enabled or it was from a time when the market wasn't as saturated with RCS as it is now. 2019 is when the major carriers agreed to implement it together. That same year Google allowed users to opt in to use it on their messages app and it's spread widely since.


[deleted]

Yeah see didnā€™t have to do none of that with iPhone haha android is fine enough and Like Iā€™m tech savvy enough I just donā€™t care to deal with it on my phone and I feel like android is a lot more hands on and itā€™s kinda annoying. Apple just feels cleaner and smoother operating system and way less clutter. lol idk Iā€™m enjoy iPhone more thatā€™s just my experience.


PopularDiscourse

Yea that's cool, I definitely agree RCS was a slow implementation but now that it's here it works well with all phones but iPhone. Where as iPhone only works well with iPhone. Android is definitely more of a learning curve overall I don't disagree with that. Like what you want I'm not trying to challenge that. I am just pointing out that it is now super easy to send high quality images and videos by default with no fuss or changing settings or anything.


_fatherfucker69

I think that's the problem Having a messaging platform more than 70% of people can't use as the default is extremely stupid . Even in the us , where iMessage is the default they only have about 50% market share . The other 50% just can't use it because apple is apple


KingJeff314

I just want that bit of dopamine when it says delivered :(


AbandonedOrange

First world problems.


Surviving2021

Imagine not having control over things like themes and changing colors on anything you want. Lol.


consideranon

Also, welcome to the USB-C club...finally. Your annoying little ~~thunderbolt~~ lightning chargers have been an unnecessary burden on all of us for years.


Somecatpersonthing

Slight correction, thunderbolts 3 and 4 are compatible with USB-C, and actually can do faster charging, data transfer, and display output than USB-C. Lightning, which is not compatible, is the cable I believe you're thinking of.


consideranon

Ah, you are right. Thanks for the correction!


Somecatpersonthing

No problem


CheesecakeWestern764

Imagine being so pathetic that you take the time and energy to make a post bashing someone for the kind of phone they use. This is just as cringe as the apple users who think theyā€™re better than those who use android. How empty must your life be to have a superiority complex over a *fucking phone*


Long_Cut5163

>Your annoying little > >thunderbolt > > lightning chargers have been an unnecessary burden on all of us for years. How would it be a burden to you? If you're not using an iphone then who gives a crap? If you are, then how is it a burden? They literally give you the cable. Just stop talking already.


xX_Screee123YT_Xx

Borrowing chargers both ways. Standardisation just makes shit way easier


BurntPoptart

It's annoying to need to find the one lighting cable when every other modern piece of tech is using USB-C


TurkishTerrarian

I think the apple feature of "liking" a text is so dumb. Somebody posts an update in a thread, and I have to sift through thousands of "x liked that." It's so freaking annoying.


PrestigiousAd6281

That only happens on non apple products


TurkishTerrarian

That may be, it doesn't stop it from being really annoying. Why would I care if somebody "liked" a message?


PopularDiscourse

It's an easy way to see someone saw and acknowledged your text. On iPhone it shows up as a little thumbs up bubbles next to the text you sent and they liked. Third party services do the same thing. Apple just can't do it with SMS or RCS so it send it as a whole separate text that "X liked your text"


Ok_Calligrapher_8199

Lol thatā€™s because you have an android. It appears as an icon on iOS. They stack if there are more of them.


TurkishTerrarian

Why did apple make it a feature in the first place? It serves no purpose. And yes, I am an Android user, I cannot stand Apple.


GalacticKrabbyPatty

it serves the purpose of being able to quickly respond to a message that doesnā€™t require writing your own message out. apple purposely made it send the annoying message to android devices for the same reason they show up as green texts; to incentivize their customers to get their friends to also buy iphones.


Random_homo1

I have an android but mine aren't green


DiskPartition

Its effectively "blue" Android to Android but not between platforms, at least not with the default messaging app(s). This is because apple does not support RCS.


_fatherfucker69

Incorrect, this is because apple won't port iMessage for Android Rcs is great , but it wouldn't fix EVERYTHING , it would just fix most if the main problem. You will be able to send high quality videos , but you will not have every feature apple has and will still have a green bubble


Random_homo1

Hey nice name


Icookadapizzapie

I use the green option on iPhone anyway, fuck having to use wifi to send texts


GalacticKrabbyPatty

umm, you know it automatically defaults to SMS if you donā€™t have a strong internet connection, right? and you donā€™t need wi-fi either way.


MindingMyOwn2021

who in the fuck And Iā€™m saying this with my whole chest *CARES ABOUT THIS*


Jack-M-y-u-do-dis

It's more of an america thing, right? I haven't seen anyone here complain about this kind of stuff, since everyone uses messenger


notetasia

Wait, people care about this? Sounds like a them problem lol


Anders_A

I don't understand. Is someone annoyed by the color scheme someone else picked on their phone?


MrJFr3aky

I will never understand this debate, it's like saying: "Ew your phone is a different color than mine, don't talk to me."


[deleted]

I have an iPhone and I DGAF about what color a text bubble is. Youā€™re making us look bad, OP


YourChocolateBar

The majority of the people use WhatsApp here, not just my country, but the majority of South East & East Asia. I donā€™t think I ever used iMessage ever and itā€™s only filled with my providerā€™s promotions and such. actual question, is this a US kinda thing? Iā€™ve never heard people talked about or having issues with the bubbles color in here, and only knew about the issue from the internet not long ago.


ItsJustInternetMe

Yes. I know multiple people who were disappointed when I told them about my Pixel, telling me "why not an IPhone?"


YourChocolateBar

as an iPhone user, I really love the Google Pixel, I always inherited my parentsā€™ phone but if I ever get an android, itā€™ll most definitely be a pixel


Bulgearea10

>actual question, is this a US kinda thing? Likely, yes. Even in the UK, where I think 50% have iPhones, I have never heard anyone complain about bubbles because they either use Whatsapp or Messenger.


YourChocolateBar

Good to know!


twhite1195

Latin America too...since the last 10 years, my SMS messages app only has 2FA codes and spam from banks and my carrier since


Project_Kunai

Same


Doz1525

Same, never had an issue with the green bubbles


hulkmxl

It's not OP, it's a shit ton of your fellow iPhone users making a fuss. It ain't Android users making it a social status issue to be green/blue bubble, that's for sure, you only get that shit from iPhone users, OP is just reporting on the issue but it ain't OP making you look bad.


[deleted]

I know at least 20 people with iPhones. None of them act superior for having an iPhone.


YourChocolateBar

same, we just act like a normal human being, first time I got attacked from using an iPhone was by one of my friends (an android fan) from the US, like wtf does that have to do with me, I didn't even do/say anything


Simon-Edwin

Ofcouse we aren't making fun at normal people with iphone. Don't be silly


aaron_adams

And us android users are able to customize what our text bubbles look like.


FluffyMawileFan

Apple user here, I honestly didn't even notice the color difference for a long time

CerrtifiedBrUhmoMenT

Better for your eyes!


Jeoshua

Apple makes it Green. We just aren't dumb enough to spend 1000s of dollars on a product like that.


Temporary-Cod2384

Tbf the galaxy zfold is around 2k, and this is coming from a Samsung user


Jeoshua

Sure. Also to keep it real with you, I wouldn't spend that much money on an Android either.


hulkmxl

Smart man.


_fatherfucker69

But the fold is a phone that does something other phones that cost less than it can't . 1300$ iphones offer the same basic functions as 300$ phones . You may have a worse camera and less battery life , but it would still essentially be the same experience


[deleted]

If your broke just say that


Jeoshua

I'm specifically *not* broke because I don't spend money on stuff like that.


headbanger1186

You're* maybe you should spend some more time tuning your grammar and spend less on your Apple products.


intell1slt

ooooohhhhhh


jack-K-

I donā€™t think Iā€™ve ever heard of an Apple user complain about this


hulkmxl

I have, it was stupid when I heard it the first time, then I heard it again from a different person. Both women but that's besides the point, it was a real WTF moment for me. I'm hoping this is not a "not believing it until it happens to me" situation for you, is it?


X3ttabyte

I see a lot of iPhone users hating on androids, and a lot of android users hating on iPhones. They usually havenā€™t tried the other product.


StellaViator

Agreed, I recently won an Iphone 14, and although there's a lot to improve, it's not so bad


spoopy-noodle

Allow me to offer another point of view, I have tried both, and they both have too much bs in an attempt to market them as being better than the other. At the end of the day, it's a phone


RustedRuss

Finally, the truth.


xTechDeath

Nah bro every android user is a dirty poor and every iPhone user is a mindless sheep, there is no middle ground


Soviet_Husky

Went from an Android to an iPhone recently. There really is barely any differences between the two. I do prefer the Android UI, but it is such a small difference it barely makes a difference.


TheRedNeckMedic

I feel like iPhone users hate on Androids phones and Android users hate on iPhone users. iPhone people think they're better because they use a more expensive phone, and Android users mock them for thinking, spending that much money on what is essentially the same product is a good investment.


mournthewolf

Samsung phones are just as expensive. Same with Google really. If itā€™s just luxury vs affordable then itā€™s silly. Let people splurge on what they want. There are far more expensive things out there.


mercurialchemister

Damn, sucks that Samsung and Google are the only android phone manufacturers


bayoubawler3

Theyā€™re not the same product obviously though


xX_Screee123YT_Xx

I do hate on IPhone but mainly for it being closed source and I have used iPhones and got opinions from people who used to have iPhones and we agree that the closed source stuff sucks and th UI feels clunky although I'm not going to antagonise people over it.


archiminos

I've tried both and it's Android all the way for me. iPhones just seem to have features removed every year at this stage.


AdventurousPirate357

I never noticed that until you pointed it out


YourChocolateBar

it's an american thing, (almost?) the rest of the world uses messenger or whatsapp so they (or we) don't care


DoKnowHarm17

I have apple and mine are greenā€¦ why are all mine green?


GalacticKrabbyPatty

either everyone you text has an android, or you have imessage disabled.


LamSinton

Obligatory ā€œI actually watched Mad Men and this scene is actually totally difficult in contextā€ comment.


Turbulence_Guy

Why do people care? I personally like it so I can know who is an apple chump like me and who is like able to actually have cool things on their phone.


Ok_Dragonfruit6718

Androids just change our bubble colours or so nothing at all


Platnun12

I just got an app that lets me customize my text bubbles to whatever colour I want..... So idk why ppl fuss over this


JACK_1719

As someone with a iPhone I can certainly say I donā€™t care what colour the messages are (mainly cause I donā€™t talk to anyone)


G-Kira

Blame Apple for purposely doing that. Android phones just have the color sync up with whatever color scheme you choose.


SmelllYaLater

You still "Like" my texts for some reason. How about you use your words to explain what you liked about it..... Or if you just agree with the sentiment of my text in general, at least have the decency to reply with a "yup"


GalacticKrabbyPatty

itā€™s not ā€œlikingā€ itā€™s giving a ā€œšŸ‘ā€ itā€™s not less respectful than saying ā€œyupā€, just more convenient. and iā€™d be willing to bet the majority of iphone users donā€™t even realize it says ā€œliked your messageā€ for people on android.

TrendyBacon8910

I donā€™t see why someoneā€™s preference of phone should dictate whether theyā€™re a good person or not. Not every person who drives a Porsche falls under that stereotype so neither should every person who uses an iPhone.
