> In fact, if it wasn't for the coloring, they wouldn't even have noticed, except if you exchanged other data than pure text, but I can't imagine this being a real deal-breaker for planning?

People very frequently exchange data other than pure text when event planning: GIFs, map pins, tapbacks to express [dis]agreement, etc.



I get gifs and likes just fine on my Android from iMessage groups I am in. I can't tell anything is missing.


We can't _send_ the tapbacks though


Seems to work fine. I get gifs and "likes" off messages all the time.


The likes being sent as separate message completely defeats the point of the tapback, which is to register a reaction without spamming the screen with extra messages.
