Do people even use it? As soon as I say that Google owned this I got rid of it while debloating someone else’s phone
Many people use it. Regular android users have it enabled in their “Messages” app.
Weird, I’ve not seen anyone I know use it in the past
I guess it’s similar to how people use iMessage because it’s the pre-installed messaging app. Both fall back to of SMS/MMS if the other party isn’t using the same closed ecosystem. I.e. Google’s proprietary end-to-end encryption or iMessage.
That makes sense.
I use it. I enabled RCS as the primary protocol since too many time critical SMS messages got too delayed.
Just as a matter of curiosity, how do you get rid of RCS specifically?
Go into Google Messages settings and disable the setting.
Maybe if I’m lucky they’ll briefly remember they have a website for sending messages and they’ll finally update it so you can react with more than seVEN EMOJIS! It’s been YEARS!!!
Is this how I can stop the messages app from bugging me about enabling RCS every time I open it? Sign me up!
