Rumor: Apple to unveil iMessage for Android at WWDC

According to a new article, Apple will unveil iMessage for Android next week at WWDC.
While unconfirmed, a move to bring the encrypted messaging service to the world's most-used mobile OS would make good business sense for the tech giant. There are millions of Android users that would prefer to use the emojis and other features of iMessage in a group chat with friends and family with iPhones.

Apple recently launched Apple Music for Android, making it clear the company is willing to expand their ecosystem when the bottom line demands it.

For now, take the report as rumor but we will learn more for sure next week at the company's WWDC keynote.
