short message service (commonly known as SMS) ushered in its 30th anniversary, to celebrate its birthday, Google announced that its messaging application Messages will support end-to-end encryption of group chats in the next few weeks, which means This feature has been used for one-on-one message conversations for several years. However, end-to-end encryption for Messages group chats is only available to Messages users in the beta program, so if you want to try it, you must be in the beta program.
In addition to announcing end-to-end encryption for group chats, Google also announced that the Messages app will soon let users reply to RCS (Rich Communication Services) messages with any emoji, similar to WhatsApp.
Google also used the 30th anniversary of SMS as an opportunity to mock Apple's refusal to adopt RCS, saying that every major mobile carrier and manufacturer has adopted RCS as a standard except Apple. Apple refuses to adopt RCS when people use iPhones When texting someone with an Android phone, you can only use SMS, which means their texting is stuck in the 1990s.
Google launched the #GetTheMessage campaign a few months ago, calling on Apple to adopt RCS, but Apple has been quite persistent and stubborn in its position. Apple CEO Tim Cook said that you can consider buying your mother an iPhone.
