Google got jealous of iMessage and remade iMessage, but Android with the promise of making it more open.
They haven't followed through on 'more open' until just now.
Rcs officially works on 2 apps. iMessage still has just 1.
But hopefully Rcs will actually become open in the future. Allowing anyone to make an Rcs app, like they can with SMS
That doesn't answer my question at all.
It's a protocol that implements modern text messaging features for sms, similar to imessage on ios. Since nobody has used sms since the nineties it's probably useless for most of us but it's interesting to see what tech giants fight about.
Believe it or not, millions if not hundreds of millions use SMS every day.
