.alpha, 21 Apr 2018Google should just make something that works with iMessageThat would be a really silly idea....
It is like asking the world to switch from Metric to Imperial units...
But you could try to persuade aPple to use standards, and change their Imessage to comply with RCS...
But I guess we should be happy that they even support calls and sms to other than their Ios infested products.

Google should not be allowed in this space. As google is always trying to gather more & more data of people without their consent and are not transparent about the reason they are collecting this data.

Arif238, 21 Apr 2018Will RCS be available in India?Yes, Reliance Jio is listed over at GSMA. But it could also be due to their proprietary implementation in the form of Jio4GVoice.

Your device may be prepares for it, without you knowing it!
Even my Blackberry Priv got it.
See e.g. http://blog.openconnection.com/2016/11/07/rcs-messaging-what-is-it-why-does-it-matter/
Look among the system apps for "RCSService"

Anonymous, 21 Apr 2018So is this ALLO or Google messages??? to be called chat or ... moreIt's basically SMS with the bells and whistles of instant messaging apps like WhatsApp. It isn't a separate app, but a feature supported by the default SMS app of Android called Android Messages. In the future it will have universal support like SMS, without need for installation of any particular app. Every phone would support it, out of the box.

Google needs to stop making new messengers. Nobody uses SMS anymore so why update it if it will stay unencrypted. Trying to steal our messages again Google?
