In today’s world we talk a lot on instant messaging platforms. This is a great convenience, also because all the main platforms allow you to to communicate with texts, images, videos, reactions and much more. Not everything is always rosy, especially when it comes to communication between different operating systems.
We have seen precisely in this sense in recent times Google almost fiercely towards Apple, regarding the Cupertino company’s failure to adopt the RCS standard, which makes SMS still the only option for communicating between Android devices and iPhones (unless you resort to third-party platforms such as WhatsApp or Telegram). But it fits into this context suddenly NothingCarl Pei’s company, which he just announced he brought iMessage on Android.
Don’t immediately think about the miracle. This is an app, called Nothing Chatsdeveloped to work exclusively on Nothing devices, which relies on a third party service for iMessage to Android bridge.
The service in question is called Sunbirdwhich is actually accessible via a waiting list for everyone, even those who don’t have a Nothing.
Therefore, with Nothing Chats it will essentially be possible to use iMessage messaging also on Android devices, or rather on the two Nothing models. Since this is an app that relies on a third-party service, not all features of iMessage are available on Nothing Chats: for example it does not work there editing messagesjust as the reactions Tapback.
Some who have tried Nothing Chats have reported that correct sending of messages requires a couple of confirmations. In short, there is something still to be optimizedas is obvious since it is a third-party based service.
Even the well-known Marques Brownlee tested the Nothing app, showing us what its interface is like and how it works. Furthermore, you also shared some details about the hypotheses you made regarding how it works technician: the service works like the other bridges already seen between iMessage and Android, and should therefore be based about signing in to your iCloud account from Mac servers located somewhere.
Therefore it would also be a good idea to carefully read Sunbird’s personal data management policy before granting access.
In short, it is one big news for all those who have Nothing devices and need to use iMessage for different reasons. On the other hand, we recognize that This is not an absolute novelty. For example, we know well how Beeper is able to do the same, without the limitation of having a Nothing model available. While it is true that currently accessing Beeper as a new user can require a long wait.
Nothing has announced that Nothing Chats is coming also in Europereporting that the app will be available next November 17. To use it you will need to install it and start the configuration, from a Nothing smartphone obviously.
