  • A new step to centralize the service :/

    • RCS is a carrier feature.

      The centralization exists with iMessage because only iPhones can use the protocol. By fall of 2024 RCS will be adopted by iPhones as well.

      • In the US, AT&T, T-Mobile, and Verizon have slowly moved to Google’s Jibe platform after years of maintaining their own servers for Rich Communication Services

        I understand that the service is not provided by carriers any more but by Google.

        And they hide this information a bit further in the app.
