I’m just sitting here frustrated because I’m wanting my family to move away from messaging me over SMS (they mainly use iOS), but they refuse to download any extra apps. But Google’s RCS really doesn’t look like a solution either since it mainly just seems to be a way of enforcing Android as an ecosystem, and they don’t even make RCS available for 3rd party apps to use either.

    No idea what you are talking about.

    Both SMS and RCS are free.

    Also, when data is so cheap it makes no sense to use SMS. It’s 30 euros per months for unlimited data where I am currently located at.

    You guys also have that green/blue bubble mania thingy, where you pretty much dehumanize anyone using non apple device in chats.

    Sounds pretty backwards to me.

      SMS is free everywhere in Europe? Is that why we get people here saying they have to pay extra for it all the time?
