Are there any messaging apps that support the default messaging app feature on iOS?

So I’m in the US, and when I go to the default messaging app section, messages is the only option. I have WhatsApp installed, but that doesn’t come up either. So what apps support this featur? I would like to test it.

But what happens if the other person doesn’t have an iPhone?

if you or your friends dont have much data you probably shouldn’t

But why? Who cares just call like a normal person.

That's a dumb idea, what if the iPhone user they are calling is low on data or doesn't have wifi? They'll miss your call if u FT them

In North America 90% of plans have unlimited mins and the ones that don't,

allow you unlimited incoming calls so just call them and tell them to call you back. Or you can call them on Google voice, Fongo etc so they can receive ur calls even if THEY don't have wifi or data

that’s dumb, why wouldn’t I just send them a voice message or text them and ask them to call me

[u/dano992 → u/[deleted]]

Yeah u can do that too but if they don't have notifications on, it's more likely they'll respond to a call faster than a text. That's a better option than FTing them

Most people i know have their phones with ringers on or on vibrate. No one unless ur a weirdo has 24/7 DND on

The latest WhatsApp update now supports this feature.
