Even if it doesn't, one has to ask.Prior to WWDC, a report emerged claiming that Apple would at long last unveil iMessage for Android. Seeing how Apple had made its streaming music service available on Android, many found this report to be somewhat plausible. As you’re probably aware of by now, however, iMessage for Android was nowhere to be found at WWDC this week. Whether or not this will stop green bubble bullying, who knows. The argument is this is bad for Apple business, because if Green bubbles are less bullied, maybe people will switch. So an iPhone users won't bully Green bubble people as much. you'll get delivery and read receipts, see typing, have high quality images, etc. The argument most are making is Apple is refusing to support RCS because those Green bubbles will not not suck as much. It's not designed to replace WhatsApp, WeChat, iMessage, etc. There are many iMessage-only features that cannot be duplicated by RCS.


Apple can choose to use a profile that is. Apple can certainly use whichever profile they want. There are various RCS profiles that can be used. This thread will blow up, and a lot of ingorance is already posted. Apple has not commented either way on whether it plans to add RCS support in the future, so the company's position is still unknown. carriers that include Verizon, AT&T, and T-Mobile have already started adopting RCS support for Android devices. Lockheimer ended his Twitter thread by stating that Google is happy to "work with Apple" to make RCS interoperability a reality, which is something that he's said before.Īpple is the last major RCS holdout, as U.S. "That's right, RCS will also improve the experience and privacy for iOS users." By not adopting RCS, Apple is "holding back the industry" and preventing both iPhone and Android customers from having the best possible messaging interactions. "Supporting RCS would improve the experience for both iOS and Android users alike," Lockheimer said. That new standard is called RCS, and it’s available now. You can see read receipts, typing indicators, better groups, secure 1:1 messages (groups coming soon) etc.
