The green bubble-blue bubble divide in chats on your phone will be bridged next year. Apple says it's going to add support for the Rich Communication Services (RCS) standard, which should bring more iMessage-style features to Android users who message with iPhone users.
Apple confirmed its plans in a statement to 9to5Mac, telling the site, "We believe RCS Universal Profile will offer a better interoperability experience when compared to SMS or MMS. This will work alongside iMessage, which will continue to be the best and most secure messaging experience for Apple users."
