Why did bubbles stop being updated

I personally really liked the idea of bubbles, messenger bubbles are great and having them for all kinds of apps was great, the UI works flawlessly, with the bubbles moving when obstructing the keyboard or PIP. But some texts never register as conversation for some reason, so you can’t bubble them, the plus icon doesn’t even suggest contacts or google message’s own conversation ? I’m so sad they dropped the ball on this feature, which was well polished but needed just a few bugfixes that never came for 2 android versions.

well, lucky you

Google is preparing to revamp bubbles on large screen devices like the Pixel Tablet!

Android 14 is preparing to add a new “bubble bar” that’s pinned to the bottom of the screen.

Wait, there’s more than just the Facebook ones?

I remember immediately disabling them after they came out.

No chat apps I use even support them.

Make sure the conversation is marked as a conversation in its notification settings.

I tried using them for a while but they only got in the way more than they were useful for me, and since I don’t really find myself constantly talking to anyone I turned them off to save myself the headache.

Maybe they’re useful to people who constantly text each other, but for me? I’ll just stick to the notification quick reply if its urgent.

    I’ve never heard of a phone that had them on by default.

    Agreed. I’m fine with them existing so long as I can turn them off

    Same here, can’t stand it. Each to their own though 👍

    Same here, especially with picture in picture for video playback. It just gets in the way and I hate it

    Wow I thought I was the only person who hated PiP. I turn that shit off on any media player that has it. And yea, chat bubbles I don’t like either lol

    vitia OP ,

    I think it’s because I’m someone who uses a lot of different apps so it’s less tiring for me to answer in a bubble when watching YouTube for example than just pausing and switching apps completely.

    still, it feels weird that they implemented this in android 11 (or 12 ?) and literally never updated them.
