Sunbird is steaming forward to bring iMessage to Android, no hardware required, and with E2EE

Back in early December 2022, news broke that a new company was attempting to achieve something that no one else done – Bring iMessage and its blue bubbles to Android phones. Granted, there are some solutions out there that “technically” allow users to use iMessage on Android, but they’re clunky and require having a host device running 24/7 to make it work. Yes, there is another app out there that promises iMessage on Android, but it’s currently closed beta, and we already know that it’s not going to be free when it finally arrives for the masses.

As you’d expect, Sunbird if very tight-lipped about how the app is delivering iMessage to users. They insist that the delivery method is 100% secure and doesn’t violate any of iMessage’s ToS. Speaking of security, Sunbird is touting that the app implements iMessage’s 100% end-to-end and that the only data stored on the company’s servers are the credentials for the Sunbird app itself.

Danny Mizrahi says that Sunbird has been able to scale while bringing the cost down to less than 60 cents per user. What is not clear is whether that is 60c per message or per month? But “cost” is not retail “price” so it will no doubt have to allow for a profit margin to be sustainable.
