Of course you can.

You can’t have a group message thread with mixed Android and Apple phone users?

That’s insane. Why?

Different poster, but lots of people carry two phones, often for professional reasons.

You need an iOS device for this to work, like an iPod touch.

That makes sense because I think she has a Mac

Oh yeah, MacOS works too. But iPod is cheaper

No. You need an apple product for it to work.

I got DD an iPhone 11 for about 450 using union discount at Apple store

This is why my 6th grader got a brand new iphone 8 (3yrs ago). There are other apps but likely all of the kids won't switch. I don't like iPhones and didn't have an old one to hand down, so it was her being left out of everything, or get the iPhone.

If they just have one friend probably not a big deal to message elsewhere, but in a group I think it always will be iMessage & facetime for kids, at least for the foreseeable future.

I do iMessage my kids from my macbook.

If you can't figure it out, get him a super cheap iphone. Or figure out if Whatsapp will work for this.

My son has an Android, but it seems like all of his friends have iphones. They are using imessage for their group chats and I feel bad that he's left out. Any way to get and send imessages from an Android??
