> In the thread to which you replied, somebody mentioned that it’s possible to do that on top RCS, and Google already did it

Google made a copy of iMessage since it is closed source and can talk to only to the same app. How is that better?



I don’t know what you talk about, because both can talk to whatever they want, because both support SMS.


Then there isn’t issue with iMessage either?

But you know what I mean - E2EE of Google Messages is closed solution.


Both have issues. iMessage has problems with interoperability, RCS has problems with requirement of operator support.


Google is still working on the standard and adding features to it. If their previous statement is true, they will open source it after that.
