iPhone 16 is here, but I’m hyped for just one reason: RCS on iOS 18 (chromeunboxed.com)

They do in the US, and you're getting downvoted because of US defaultism.

But on a global scale, you're right.

None of my android friends have RCS on their phone yet, but my iPhone does.

It’s more than likely that every single one of your Android friends have RCS on their phones.

I am absolutely positive none of them do, they show as sms and we keep using signal instead.

You having no clue is not the same thing as being absolutely positive.

my dude.

I have literally sat next to these people, just this past Saturday, and we were talking about just this BECAUSE our group chat for our game wasn’t “working” for us.

I know for an absolute certain fact that the three of them don’t have RCS, we all thought it was funny and moved on with our lives and switched to signal.

Idk why you’re so certain of something you’re otherwise totally ignorant to

They need Google Messages and they need to enable it in the settings.

You do not know for absolute certain fact, which I know for absolute certain fact because the likelihood of your claim is incredibly low.

Are your friends phones running Android 5.0 or later? (I’m sure they are) they have RCS. End of story. This is not something you can dispute, you’re just wrong.

You can be in denial about it, but your friends have RCS.
