iMessages + Apps - iMessage for Millennials™ - share stickers & even more emoji

@nivo0o0 True. ;-) But I'm afraid that Facebook Messenger will bring this Feature before iOS10 is finally released.

@androidlove the scale of money being spent by users is more important than raw user counts when deciding where to invest development effort.

@gerwitz true

@androidlove I'm in Hong Kong. My last genuine iMessage received was over a year ago... It's a dead platform in most parts of Asia, like SMS itself.

@nelsonmckey imessage being tied in ios is the reason it never has or ever will become a major platform in the big leagues. The tech bubble is real and distorts reality.

@nelsonmckey These Apps such as WeChat, Telegram and etc, are popular one day, and they are not another day. Plus, as you said, each of these apps might be popular in a region or part of the world, not everywhere. For example, Telegram is so popular in Iran, while in the U.S. you can hardly find someone who have it in their phone, and if they do they rarely use it. so you can't really compare it. — While iMessage tides in to the iOS and it's hard to imagine any of these services can replace iMessage in the long run.

@rdbrdd PREACH

@topdownjimmy What @Pebble would need is an open iOS Messages API, not the on-phone extensions/experiences announced today.

@jisforjoe @pebble dang

@lay2000lbs I think all iMessage is doing is taking inputs and sending it to your apps kind of like the way Intents work on Android. So you will need to extend your app ;)
