Here at Nothing, we’re building a world where tech is fun again. Remember a time where every new product made you excited? We’re bringing that back.

“Nothing Chats, powered by Sunbird, allows you to directly message other phone users from your Nothing phone via blue bubbles.”

I don’t think this solves the problem, but it is a step in the right direction.

    SMS has been free in India since 2016. Though one could say WhatsApp had already become dominant by then, so it stuck.

      Exactly. It has reached critical mass to a point where if you’re not on it, you’re basically not communicating.

      Also, I remember that cross-carrier calling was an issue, which is why most people would need to use dual-SIM phones. Not sure if it’s the same for SMS.
