No. The keep it sane. They don't need the loons walking around with their lime green theme showing people their "iPhone". Bad marketing.
Green and blue message colors have particular meaning, allowing users to customize that loses that meaning and works against what Apple wants to have established there.I've heard that argument before. Easily solved by apple making their own color themes and then letting us choose one. I would even pay for them.
Or, simply limiting say text bubble colors to colors that look good against the white background. There is a world outside green and blue text messages.

The point is that Apple would want to avoid that as it wouldn't be consistent and defeat the use of the colors there which they use to identify specific messages and can refer to specific designated colors in the support documentation and the like. It's not about just colors, it's about specific ones and what they mean. Cuts down on any confusion or additional inconsistencies in Apple's eyes as most typical users barely grasp the green/blue concept as it is, and would completely not get it or forget it or get confused by it if colors could be changed and made different on everyone's phones. Yes, this doesn't apply to a lot of people, but it does apply to a good majority of the typical users who outnumber the other group.Yes I realize that green is a text message and blue is an iMessage, but you can easily set it to say iMessages orange and text messages purple or something. Just to switch it up. Same colors all the time get very old especially when messaging is the main thing up use a phone for.

Android OS allows users to customize a lot of UI elements yet most of the Android phones I see in people's hands are still the same factory layout. As important as this feature sounds to you it may not necessarily reflect the wants of most.
Then go buy one.
go buy what?
An Android phone. What he's saying is that if you want uber-customizability, use Android. As far as I personally know, most iPhone users use iPhones because they are stable and easy to understand.
I get that but why are you quoting me? I'm the one who said that other phones like Android have the option but most people don't even customize them.

Very good idea! I hope Apple implements this in iOS 9. The iOS color schemes are getting pretty stale and boring to me :-/
Apple doesn't really believe in the whole color and stickers and whatnot market. It doesn't add anything useful and is purely subjective and different did everyone.That's what I mean. The green and blue text bubbles have been the same for years. People like to freshen things up a bit. What would be the harm in apple making 3 color schemes (so they can make sure it "looks good"), and then selling them? You'd think they'd make lots of money on it.
