Hi,
I've been using iPhones for a few years now, but I am hoping to switch back to an android phone because I loved my Samsung Galaxy S2. The only concern I have is regarding group messages. By group messaging I mean have multiple people in one text group where every text sent by any person in the group is received by all (like a Facebook group inbox), and not mass messaging where one message is sent to a large group of people individually. I have 2 group iMessage's that I use daily, one with my family and one with my friends.
I'm wondering if there is an easy way to be involved in a group chat (obviously without iMessage) with myself on an Android device (probably a HTC One M8) and 3 other people on iPhones, or even a mixture of both. I understand that there are apps out there such as "WhatsApp" but I am not willing to make all my friends and family use that app just for me. I'm happy to use a separate app rather than the stock messaging app but I want my friends with iPhones to be able to use the ordinary iPhone Messaging app.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
