Sunbird Messaging
sunbirdapp.com
The first solution to get iMessage on Android that takes 60 seconds. All you need is your Android phone and an email. Fully encrypted messaging and unified inbox across all your messaging platforms.

Hey everyone, I’ve got a software suggestion for all you android users. Here’s the cheesy sales pitch, though I’d share: Sunbird is a new All-In-One messenger that will hopefully be coming out in mid-2023. It will basically aggregate multiple messengers on android (whatsapp, facebook messenger, sms, rcs, discord, signal) including imessage! NO MORE GREEN BUBBLES!!! Best part (other than imessage), there going to keep it free for as long as they can. (at least that’s the vibe I’m getting from the discord server). This app looks so freaking cool! Currently they’ve just got it open to some alpha testers but they will start releasing it to beta list soon. Let me just say, the alpha’s screenshots of imessage are looking very nice. You can use this link to sign up for the beta https://sunbirdapp.com/?r=jVmdy

      Sorry for the slow response. It is completely separate from matrix, built from scratch, not a fork at all. It is not open-source, but they have been very clear about their privacy stance and are currently going through third party audits. So far, I think they look very promising. Here is a page on their website that explains their stance on privacy. (Which is pretty darn good so far.)
