iPhone iOS18 RCS messages
Hey everyone, I’ve updated to ios18 on my iPhone 14PM , which means I should be able to rcs across to my android buddies! But I can’t (yet) there is nothing in settings I can see.
what gives? Is it...
SMARTY doesn't have its own iOS profile, they use THREE's iOS profile and that’s why the setting shows. However, THREE’s RCS service doesn’t work with Smarty, and thus it’s not supported.
RCS is available with SMARTY on my Samsung S24 Ultra, pop the SIM in my iPhone 15 Pro Max ... No dice for RCS ????
Yes because RCS is a Google/Android messaging protocol that Apple has reluctantly adopted after pressure from the EU. Android uses the Google or Samsung RCS servers to operate but Apple has made the protocol and servers carrier specific.
