No, it doesn't. It works in simple cases as long as none of the iMessage participants invites someone else into the conversation and starts a group conversation. Once that happens you can only participate in the conversation if you have an actual iMessage client.

That isn't true. I'm in a 3 year old group chat with 4 iPhone friends and 1 Android friend and it works perfectly fine. The Android friend just gets text messages, the rest of us get iMessages.
