So i was looking through the reviews and why are there so manny one stars? I use this app every day all the time. Sure there are some annoying things, like it doesnt allow you to unsend things and edit them if you dont do it right away. But i can tell iMessages has fixed a lot of things, like you totally can facetime and text at the same time. 😝 I love texting my friends, especially since im switching schools, so this app is a LIFE SAVER ❤️
I also 💗 that the contacts, phone, and facetime apps are all conected to iMessage; so right there in the app if you tap the facetime button in a groupchat, it happens. No need to go to another app to call. This is so great, but for ipad users im super sorry u cant text andriod phones. I experienced this with my friend when i had an apple ipad. it made me sad cuz all my friends had phones and could text her but i couldnt. But now i have a phone and its all good. If thats not the case for you though still consider iMessages. I sincerely LOVE it🫶
There are so many reasons why I love this app, but the most of all I really liked this app because when I had an iPad, all the other text messaging apps didn’t let me text my friends and I felt like I was left out because all the other friends had like their group chat and like I was excluded from all them, but when I found this app, I was added to all the group chats, even though I had a Gmail and not a real phone number and it was really great because I really felt like I was like a part of my class group and it was really nice to be able to like text my friends privately if I wanna talk to them about something. I also really love IMessages because whenever I need to contact someone in emergency I can just ask Siri and to send someone a message and it literally goes straight to them without any glitches any reasons not to and with other apps they say like sorry can’t do that. It’s really frustrating and obnoxious that they can’t do that but with this app it makes things so much easier and I really really love it. I recommend it five stars love it.
I love this app and have used it for many years but I do have one complaint:
There needs to be more inclusive emojis! There are so many random emojis that I have never used but you are lacking a lot of very important emojis! There are 29 different clock emojis, 13 mail emojis, 13 moon emojis, and so many others that you are basically wasting time creating but there is barely any pride flags. The best excuse that I’ve heard so far is that people don’t use the flags category enough, which is true but I do use the 💙💜💖 version a lot amd I think that the reason why people don’t use it enough is because there is a lot of flags that not a lot of people use and I understand that each flag is for a culture / place but a lot more people are queer than people who use the other flags in that category. Thank you for listening! 🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈
Ps. It would be great if you could add a red panda emoji too, their my favorite animal and i would really appreciate it
Personally, iMessage has always been a solid choice compared to other messaging apps like Messenger. Although they both have their pros and cons, one of the biggest pros of iMessage is that it has access to apps from the app store, making it more expansive and more customizable. I love how it also feels well polished and well designed. But it's not perfect, it's far from it. There are three features that come to my mind that iMessage has always lacked that would make it significantly better. 1, timed texts. Having the ability to send text messages natively by easily selecting the upcoming time desired would be so useful to me. 2, themes. I know this is all preference, but I like each conversation to feel a little different for each person, and through themes (even if it's just changing basic colors of message bubbles) would make a big difference. And 3, mass text options. The current options available are okay, but to add a switch to easily toggle
Hi 🍎. I just have one small complaint. Not trying to say anything but I have A-LOT of friends and I just can’t pin them all and it makes me feel like I’m excluding all my friends. As in for all the people in the world who is dealing with this situation I know that it may sound small but it can also start fights which might sound weird but it has happened many times. I don’t want to sound rude and I rated this app with perfect explanation. I feel like there is a lot of people with a bunch of relatives they want to pin such as mom dad and siblings but also their friends and as a girl with 2 parents 1 brother that’s already 3 and I can only fit 6 friends, I hate to make people feel left out or excluded or even worse not my friend. In the nicest way possible this really could break friendships whether it seems like it or not. Apple this could become a problem so please please fix this. I feel like it should allow people to pin as much as they want. If there has to be a limit you should at least make it 20 or 15 at least. anyway thank you for reading this message and I hope you have a great day. God Bless Jesus loves you.💕💕💕

And 3, mass text options. The current options available are okay, but to add a switch to easily toggle between group (which sends an MMS reply to all recipients) and mass text (which sends an SMS reply to all recipients separately with individual replies) would be incredibly useful. Overall, the app is a very safe app, it works very well at what it does. With a few added features it could give the app a little more love and would significantly improve users' experiences.
Messages is a very good app, but I have some suggestions on Memojis. First of all, good job adding different body shapes! Not having all the Memojis skinny and flat chested is a huge improvement. But there could be more. #1: necklaces, bracelets, watches and rings. Jewelry is a big way to express yourself. #2: more hair options. Now, there are already a lot of hairstyles, but more braid/dreadlock styles, and more wavy/curly hair. There is straight hair and very curly hair, but no slightly curly hair, and one wavy option that comes with bangs! Also more hair color options, such as turquoise and rainbow. #3: being able to take away all or parts of of the arms, instead of all of them being fully armed. Also adding prosthetics. Not all people are born with two whole arms. People lose arms for various reasons. #4: adding scars. And finally, #5: more clothing options, as well as being able to add words/pictures onto the clothing. More dresses, more casual shirts, more shirt styles, and tank tops would be great. I really enjoy making Memojis, but with the additions of what I’ve said above, I feel like it could be much better. I hope you’ll take my suggestions into consideration. 🩷
I absolutely love Messages!! The six stars in the title is not a typo!! I would seriously give Messages six stars for a rating if possible. Messages is a must-have for everybody who has it available to them!!
I especially like the new features and updates from iOS 17. I love everything about Messages. The only suggestion I would make is to add a name option for Memojis. By that I mean there should be a option where it says “New Memoji,” “Edit,” “Duplicate,” and “Delete,” that says “Name.” I think this because it would be easier to remember which Memoji is for which of your friends and family. I would definitely love it if my suggestion was taken into play. Anyone who agrees with this suggestion, like this review so Apple knows how many people want this feature. And download the Messages app ASAP if you haven’t already and it is available on your device!! 🩷🩷🩷
It’s a very good app if you wanna get in touch with people but 3 things that bothers me the most Is that first of all when your texting it’s hard to under stand what people are saying or how there saying it like for example if someone said “ok” do mean ok 🙄😒 or ok! 😊and don’t get me wrong emojis are a good way to express but sometimes people can use the crying emoji as a joke which is not funny second of all it’s the worst way to get in a fight like once a friend said “I know you ____ so bye” I thought she said we’re not friends anymore but she meant I need space dont text me back please so we got in a big fight. Last thing is I was trying to talk to a friend but it kept not sending or “ message failed to send” so reached out to a couple of people to see if they new if she accidentally deleted me, she didn’t and I’m still having this problem I went to the app and tried to see if there were updates I saw the reviews and thought it be a good idea to warn people about it! If you ever think a friend is mad ask to call it’s a way better way to communicate!
I love this app because it’s quick, clean, and fast! I also love the features where it tells you when your message was delivered, and read. These features make a huge different when I communicate with people! If you’re looking for a quick, fast, good-looking accessible app, I highly recommend it!
However, as I read in other reviews, it DOES lack features such as customization of the default font, bubble color, and background. It seems everyone wants them these days, so I’m a little surprised Apple didn’t add them by now. (Sorry, Apple!) If you’re looking for a customizable app, this isn’t really for you until Apple includes these features.
I also would love to see more ways to access iMessages without a Mac. What if we use a Windows PC? An iCloud Web feature would help greatly for people who need to communicate without a Mac, as well as an official desktop app for the PC.
I’d also like more reactions than the six we have now, as well as more iMessages reactions!
Lastly, (this may be more of a “Contacts” app rating), I think we should be able to set icons as people’s profile pictures. Sometimes, flat and monochrome is much easier to read than using a sometimes over-the-top emoji.
Besides this, this app is great, looks beautiful in both light and dark mode, and is quick, easy to access, and it works well with Siri! Great work, Apple! 👏😃
