RCS is googles garbage attempt at fixing SMS. It sucks lol

Not very helpful, but just needed to state my disdain 🤣

🤣

I noticed the read receipts. Is it encrypted?

It’s not encrypted by default. Pretty sure google has added E2EE (end to end encryption) for one to one chats in google messages

Encryption on Google, that’s funny 😂

You received your new phone?

Negative lol I just never looked into the difference before
