Sunbird, the company that makes “iMessage for Android,” has announced that it is temporarily shutting down its Android app due to security concerns. The company has not given an ETA as to when the app may be re-enabled for its users.
Last week, Nothing CEO Carl Pei announced a new app for the Nothing Phone 2 called “Nothing Chats.” Pei claimed that the app enabled users to send an Apple iMessage from an Android phone with most of the benefits of iMessage. The company says that it was able to make this happen through a partnership with Sunbird, which also offered its own app to use iMessage on Android.
