iOS 18 RCS rollout coming in the fall to bridge Apple & Android messaging gap

RCS rollout in iOS 18 to bridge Apple & Android messaging gap

6 comments

Unfortunately not in the dev beta, presumably it will require a carrier settings update for most users.
Does this mean android text chats will now sync across all my devices (iPad, Mac) the way iMessage chats do?
- That’s an interesting question, but I haven’t heard anyone mention something like that yet.
- I don’t think so. The sync feature would have to be feature of the RCS. Which it is not.
  Apple would need to implement such syncing feature, which I doubt they will
  
  Disappointing but to be expected from Apple I suppose.
What's the catch?
