What Is Google RCS Messaging?
Google RCS messaging, or Rich Communication Services messaging, is an advanced protocol designed to enhance traditional SMS (Short Messaging Service) by providing a more feature-rich experience similar to modern messaging apps like WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, or iMessage. RCS allows users to send high-resolution photos and videos, participate in group chats, see typing indicators, receive read receipts, and enjoy other interactive features that are not available with standard SMS.
