iMessage vs Google Chat
At this point, iMessage is a mature, stable messaging platform that brings with it just about everything you could want: Read receipts, location sharing, reaction effects, the ability to unsend messages, and plenty more. It syncs your messages seamlessly across iPhones, iPads and Macs as well, so you don’t always have to do your chatting on your smartphone.
Google’s messaging strategy continues to be a mess: Chat has now taken over from Allo, Hangouts and everything else, but doesn’t play well with Apple. It’s not a bad chat app, and offers several handy features, but its only real advantage over iMessage is that you can use it on any device, whether or not that device is made by Apple.
And the winner is… iMessage
