Apple is having trouble integrating the new required communications monitoring order (with accompanying gag order) from the Administration, but no worries, they'll get it sorted out soon enough. /s
I have been having issues since Monday. When I sent a message from my iphone it would show up as sent on my Mac. No more. And the blue bubble is gone. Green texts on Mac and iPhone.
But thank God Apple is introducing new watch bands.
Honestly don't think iMessage for Android will ever be a thing. Don't think Apple are interested in supporting Android users within their services - something they've said multiple times. You want iMessage...you buy a £700 iPhone.
