Green vs blue bubbles gets yet another chapter...
Well, this was not on my bingo car for 2023. So from a hotel over the Las Vegas Strip you already know what's going on here. A little update on Headline you might have seen today: Apple is officially officially going to be supporting RCS on the iPhone starting next year in 2024. Big headline, a lot of waves it's been making, but a couple clarifications.
First of all, it's not going to solve the blue bubble versus green bubble thing in the US. That's still going to be a thing here because the key is it's being supported alongside iMessage which is still the blue bubble. Maybe they'll change the color or something, but as far as features we'll get, we should have higher quality media. When texting an iPhone to an Android phone, we should have read receipts.
We should have typing indicators. The weird one though now is there is no end to-end encryption supported in this Universal profile that Apple is choosing to support. But there are also reports that they may be working with the Gsma to maybe add encryption to this Universal profile by the time it shows up in 2024. So we'll see.
but RCS now on the iPhone soon.
🎉
😂😂
Thank you, European Union. ❤
RCS support, iPhone 16 only.
Glory upon thee, great Europe, and let us thankt for delivering us from the sins of capitalism 🇪🇺
huh.. EU be shaping the world.. god bless EU!
Lets goooo
Has anyone heard of WhatsApp?? iMessage is pointless anyways.
They should also add matrix messaging protocol
What… is RCS?
I don’t think many people care about iMessage anymore because everyone is using Snapchat
Sorry Apple 😂
I really need your help, I just upgraded my iPhone to the new iOS 17 but ever since then I couldn’t been able to text to a android user because it always says not delivered and I tried everything to fix it but I can find the right video to find it please help me out.
Who cares, well other than apple. I know they want to single people out who own androids. I don't care. I have never cared if I show up as a green or blue bubble, or a damn pink bubble. What is nice is that even if they (apple) don't like it Android and iPhone users should be able to send high quality video and photos. I see a photo from an iPhone and it looks like trash, they see the same so it sounds like that will improve.
