And in the meantime, I—an iPhone owner—should not be able to have group chats with my Android-using friends?
"The perfect is the enemy of the good."
RCS may not be perfect, but it seems to have nice things over and above SMS. I have no objections to adding more nice things to RCS (or whatever comes after it), but why shouldn't we implement the nice things of RCS?
- jaywalk 4y agoWhat's stopping you from having group chats with your Android-using friends? I have plenty of them on my iPhone.
- woojoo666 4y agoI believe GP was talking about sms group chats. And if you have sms group chats with android users, it sucks for them, especially how reactions and replies show up on their side. iMessage group chats degrade the experience of your android friends for the convenience of iPhone users. It's not a great way to treat friends imo. 3rd party apps are the same amount of convenience for everybody.
