How To Enable iOS Reactions To Messages On Android Phones

The iOS operating system, in particular, has a feature that allows you to quickly respond to some messages using emojis to show the sender that you have received the message. Being an Android user makes communicating with an iOS user difficult because the Android user does not see the creation attached to the message bubble. Although the blue and green bubble messaging divide isn’t going away anytime soon, Google has devised a solution for Android users: the “Messages” app, which displays iOS reactions on Android so that users can react to them just like iOS users. This Techschumz will show you how you can enable iOS reactions to messages on Android phones (Samsung, Google Pixel, Xiaomi, OnePlus, and Oppo).


Messages by Google

The Messages app is Google’s official chat app, which enables you to text anybody from anywhere while maintaining the trustworthiness of texting and the depth of discussion. You can keep in contact with friends and family, send group texts, and share your favorite images, GIFs, emoji, stickers, videos, and voice messages.

This app lets you send and receive messages via Wi-Fi or your data network, as well as see when your friends are typing or have read your message, exchange photographs and videos, and much more. It also makes communication more exciting and quicker for you with rapid notifications, smart replies, and fresh looks. Finally, you can also view more of the content shared in your chats b tapping the search symbol and choosing your particular contact to view your chat history with them, as well as all the photographs, videos, and addresses you exchanged.
