Just An Idea: Change Colour Of Text Bubbles On Apple Devices

[gemz4the1]

I think Apple should allow its users to decide on the colours of the text bubbles. 

Currently iMessages are blue and text messages are green. 

It'd be nice if we could decide what colours were used.  Some people detest the colour green. 

I suggest red or pink text bubbles for everyone

I think it would be a good feature for Apple to add to allow users to personalise their device more.

Hi Gemz


I agree it would be nice if apple allowed this in its stock settings.

The way Apple see their iOS is that a person used to it can pick up any Apple device with iOS on it and recognise how it works and understands its features.

Another example of why people like Android: Different phones give you different options like that, and if you don't like the ones you are provided with you can download a different free messaging app that does!

Hi Phillpark


The changing of message bubbles could cause some conusion. Ie Blue is the ios Known indication for iMessage where a user knows they don't get charged for sending emoticons and pictures via that way as they would do by sms.

That part of iOS is sandboxed by Apple but I like others think it should be relaxed a little.

The changing of bubble colours can be achieved but not on a stock vanilla iPhone / iPad. 😉

If you want freedom of choice, buy android.
If you're happy to follow others, buy Apple - Simples

That's basically it, with android comes a wealth of different options, especially if you install customizable launchers which, unlike IOS require no rooting to install.

There are features with Apple that Android don't have and vice versa so it's each to their own

Very true Gemz and I like both platforms as well as windows too for their own attributes.

Such as for one I like the UI layout better of iOS than Android.

The menu system for me seems simpler to navigate around.
