iMessage For Android via Mac

Hi All,

Perhaps some devs could provide some insight into a project like this.

As we all know there isn't any very good solution for those seeking iMessage on their android devices. The best we have so far is an app that has an iMessage server middleman somewhere in China where all of our messages pass through with who knows who is reading.

I have an idea, as someone who uses an android and a Mac, I still have access to iMessage through my macbook.

Would it be theoretically possible to create an app that tunnels to your Mac's built in iMessage program and displays it on your android with an interface very similar to the iPhone? Obviously this solution will only work for those of us with Macs, but I'd much prefer something like this as opposed to what's available on google play (if it's still even there).

I can somewhat create this using a VPN server off my mac connecting it to my android but my mac needs constant internet connection (can solve this with personal hotspot beam off android device as long as you've got your Mac with you when you aren't near wifi), but overall this is tedious to navigate. There has to be a way to create this into a more simplified user friendly app.

I would be interested in working with/help with testing if any of you would like to undertake a project like this. Though I have limited code experience.
