Instant messaging is a very competitive space. With the rise of WhatsApp, its acquisition by Facebook, increasing demands for security and encryption, and previous powerhouses like MSN Messenger and ICQ disappearing into obscurity, Apple’s answer is iMessage.
The platform is built into every iOS and Mac device, features secure end-to-end encryption, and was a bit of a revolution in free messaging when it arrived on the scene in iOS 5. With the arrival of iOS 10, Messages got the biggest single update since its introduction.
With new features, animations, the ability to send drawings, and a whole message-focused App Store tacked on, there’s plenty to get excited about.
