- CharlesW 4y agoYou can't send everyone an RCS message either. Juniper Research predicts the number of mobile phone users who can access RCS will reach 40% by 2026.¹ ¹ https://www.techradar.com/news/nearly-half-of-phones-will-use-rcs-by-2026 https://www.techradar.com/news/nearly-half-of-phones-will-us...
- mort96 4y agoRight, but you can send anyone an SMS. It would've been nice if we had a beter protocol in the same situation.
- CharlesW 4y agoFor sure! And RCS Universal Profile may be as ubiquitous as SMS/MMS by 2030, so it wouldn't surprise me if we see Apple support by iOS 20 or so.
- JohnFen 4y agoI intentionally have RCS disabled (I actively don't want the features it brings), but I still get the texts from RCS people -- they're just converted into ordinary MMS for me first.
