iPhone iOS18 RCS messages
- 19-02-2025
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.
shortbread Given that Smarty has not yet adopted short code texts after all this time, I don't see them taking on RCS any quicker unfortunately.
That would be a huge disappointment. I appreciate Smarty is cheap but I'd still expect it to support new features eventually - if there's no communication from Smarty regarding this high-value feature within the next couple months I'll simply move myself and my family away from Smarty back to Three or elsewhere.

shortbread Short code texts have been a cause for complaint for over two years, so I guess you may need to consider a move if RCS is an important feature for you.
As I have said all to frequently, it seems that a network will only take action when the loss of profit exceeds the cost of taking action.
