    But when is RCS provided as an API like text messages, so we can get third party apps?

      Bro, I know. Google came out with their system API like 3 years ago, but has been completely silent about their user API. Until they make a user API, only manufacturers can make an app that uses it.

    “Beyond Google Messages, there are other messaging clients that use RCS”.

    I was surprised to see this statement, and I’d like know which ‘other clients’ are being referred to here. Anybody know?

      there’s an “RCS Test App” in AOSP that nobody has managed to transform into a practical piece of software…

      The only one I can think of is Samsung Messages. I use it rather than Google Messages because I like the way that it handles custom notification tones for individual contacts.
