What does iMessage’s green “Join” button mean?
When you see the green join button on iMessage, you can join a group chat. iMessage has a feature called “group chat” that lets you talk to more than one person at the same time.
When you see the green “Join” button, it means that someone in the chat has asked you to join the conversation. Once you accept the invitation, you will be added to the group chat and will be able to take part in the conversation.
Anyone who receives an invitation to a group chat but doesn’t wish to participate should just disregard it to avoid being included to the group.
The “Quit Chat” option allows you to leave a group conversation at any moment. Group chat is a great way to stay in touch with far-away friends and family. It’s also a great way to meet people who like the same things you do.
