Trying to ditch Google messages without success. I hung onto the old Samsung app forever but it is super buggy for me. I tried to switch to textra, bought the paid version, but keep getting this "MMS timeout" message so idk if im not getting or sending messages correctly. Have tried all the fixes i found online to no avail. So, is there any real, decent alternative to Google messages?
It's like SMS, a messaging standard. But compared to SMS, RCS enables features like end to end encryption, larger file attachments, rich text formatting, and much more. It is the new standard of messaging. Even iPhone texting is getting RCS support. I believe at some point SMS should die entirely and be replaced with RCS. It's more secure, less spoofable, more convenient, and feature rich.
