Here’s what the different iMessaging bubbles mean ⇢


  • Blue iMessage bubbles ⇢ Messaging through Apple’s iMessage
  • Green iMessage bubbles ⇢ MMS/SMS messaging through your carrier
  • Gray iMessage bubbles ⇢ All incoming messaging


Most of the time, your messaging bubbles should be blue, except when you’re texting with a non-Apple user or have poor network connection.
