Google Messages Custom Bubble colors only for RCS
We now have some more color on Custom Bubbles, including how Google Messages is limiting it to RCS. Google is still rolling out..
You're viewing a single thread.
Google touting RCS like it's some big new thing as if it isn't some outdated as hell unencrypted protocol and defnitley has nothing to do with the fact that they have been sitting on their ass not even trying to make a new system all while blaming apple.
God what a mouthful
If it ain't open source E2E, then shut up and sit down.
Google messages as an app can also screw off. Pictochat from the DS had a more usable and nicer looking UI.
RCS supports E2E though! https://support.google.com/messages?p=messages_e2ee
E2E on RCS is not a described standard. This is a google addon that requires the use of data/WiFi to function, and is exclusive to the Google Messages App because Samsung torpedoed their own app last year, leaving Google as the only E2E "provider"
To be fair though, I guess this is also partially GSMA's fault for not properly creating a guideline for an updated standard or version.
