Apple is not exactly opening up iMessage and will maintain its 'blue bubble' exclusivity for iPhone users
Apple has announced that it will adopt RCS messaging, which introduces iMessage-like features for cross-platform messaging between iPhones and Android devices. However, iMessage will still remain exclusive to Apple devices, while Android users can now communicate with iMessage users. Apple's decision to adopt RCS may have been influenced by the European Union's targeting of big tech companies under the Digital Markets Act regulations. This move allows Apple to avoid regulatory troubles while still maintaining the exclusivity of iMessage for its users.
