Big changes are coming to the iPhone’s Messages app, as part of the iOS update that’s reported as being the “biggest-ever” in engineers’ eyes. And if you’re signed up to the new iOS developer beta, you can see those changes right now, it seems.
It also includes many features which iMessages has had for years, such as typing indicators that show the other person is writing to you right now, and read receipts. Android has similar capabilities but the thing is, until now, the two systems have refused to share these features between the platforms. Now, with RCS, they can, along with supporting larger file sizes and emoji reactions.
Oh, and before you ask, no, it won’t mean the end of green bubbles in your Messages. Those sent between iPhones continue to have the blue bubbles, the jealously guarded messages that some see as superior. But messages incoming from Android phones will still be green, even though they’ll have more features.
