But who handles sms? I thought l rcs was just the next iteration of sms. Then google adds the encryption part of it. Can’t apple do it for their devices? I mean I guess you could say why when they have iMessage but if they’re so concerned about privacy, it would make iOS users completely secure then. Because technically apple users are vulnerable when texting via sms.

Just like sms, rcs is the next evolution of that standard. Apple could move to it.

They can still use rcs. They use sms now. No reason to not implement rcs. Encryption or not. SMS doesn’t have it anyway.

Whatever you say lol not surprised I find this kind of apple obsession in an iPhone subreddit.

It’s not even about believing, its the truth. Google started a whole campaign calling out apple for not helping to create a standard or utilize rcs.

It’s nowhere near google and Amazon. So yeah, in comparison, it pales.

While yeah, I want encryption. There’s still no reason apple can’t include rcs. SMS already doesn’t have encryption. So what does it matter. Jsut apple being apple.

I 100% believe apple is purposefully avoiding working with google on fixing the issue. They don’t want it better for android people. They just want them to switch to apple. Which I get. But still doesn’t change that apple is not willing to fix this.

Matter is a standard that benefits apple cause barely anything suppers HomeKit.

But just as google does, apple could ensure it’s included.

Google has made it clear they want to work with apple on it. They have a whole campaign on it. Whether how true it is behind the scenes, I have no idea. But they seem to be willing whereas apple, not so much.

Rcs. But apple is fighting it.

Your 14 performs as well as any other flagship smart, found in 2023. Whether it be iPhones or android. Any flagship phone is going to feel exactly the same 99% of the time. Yes, the processor in the iPhones are much better overall technically from a hardware standpoint, but it’s nothing that you will notice. Just like iPads, so powerful yet so limited. exactly the iPhone.
