    My issue with RCS is its only open to other device makers, like you can’t make RCS apps cause you need a special license. Its a closed system that on android will likely always depend on google

      Also, encryption is a mixed bag depending upon the client, and you need a phone number. Using iMessage with an email address is quite nice.
