Yes, I'm the one in the group DM that turns the bubbles green, I'm sorry.

But other than that, I don't hear many other reasons why people actually prefer iPhones over Androids. What other reasons are there?

It’s a very US thing since they’re still texting normally and in iMessage, normal SMS show up as green bubbles instead of blue.

In the rest of the world, messaging apps like WhatsApp are more popular which doesn’t have this.

I'm in the US and rarely use regular text. I'm mostly texting through Facebook messenger actually although I don't really use Facebook itself. Just most of my friends use that method to send messages.
