      I know. I was pointing out one of the nice things that this person can do, since they’re referring specifically to the default android sms handling app, is that android allows you to switch the default to whatever sms app you’d prefer to use. So if you don’t like the direction Google is taking theirs, you can find a different one that better fits with what you prefer.

      If you have an iPhone and don’t like the direction apple takes one of their default apps, like sms or phone calling apps, you can’t change the defaults that handle those and other phone functions.

        I really don’t know why you’re being down voted, this is definitely true. I’m Gen Z, and I definitely got excluded from group chats in high school because I have an Android phone. Even in college it’s a pain to communicate with people outside of engineering/CS/DS majors because they always complain about the green bubble.
