RCS is finally coming to iPhones" complete with heart emojis. Google is very, very pumped about RCS messaging coming to iPhones with iOS 18. The Android maker says it'll be the end of a series of ills between iPhone and Android users' group chats.
iPhone to Android communications will finally be free of the ancient SMS standard that lacks encryption and results in a greatly diminished experience Google has bemoaned for so long. Apple confirmed RCS adoption in November last year.
Google is excited for RCS messaging to come to iPhones with iOS 18, improving the communication experience between iPhone and Android users. The video released by Google today shows more excitement than previous communications regarding Android 15.
Apple isn't ditching the iMessage platform for iPhone-to-iPhone communications. However, fixing the shambles of texting between platforms might take priority. RCS messaging between iPhone and Android will feature encryption, perhaps upgrading to end-to-end encryption.
