Tech & AI | June 26, 2024, 12:03 p.m.

Android owners with iPhone friends running the iOS 18 beta can now rejoice as RCS has been enabled for messaging between the two platforms. This update allows for high-res media sharing, file attachments, voice notes, and improved GIF support. However, message reactions still need work, showing as separate messages rather than integrated reactions. To make use of RCS on iOS 18, ensure it is enabled in the Messages app settings, though initial use may be a bit glitchy. Reactions to audio notes are currently not working properly and audio clips display as file attachments. While there is still room for improvement, this cross-platform messaging experience shows promise. If you are eager to test RCS with your iPhone friends, start a chat and share your feedback on the functionality. Exciting advancements in messaging technology are on the horizon for Android and iPhone users.
