It’s working for me on ATT to ATT android phone. I sent a full resolution video, I’m getting Tapbacks and read receipts. I even sent a 1 minute long 4k HDR video. This is a big deal for mixed OS families.
Got a tip for us?

Check mine about 30 minutes and RCS is on and working without having to do anything. Verizon, Napa
You realize this is working by running through a proxy, right? I wouldn't do this. You've waited this long, just wait a little longer for official support to go live.Saw this on X. Anyone knows how to do this?

Fully working on Verizon phone. I turned it on yesterday and all the sudden it started working about 30 minutes ago. Texting another Verizon phone not sure if it matters or not
Still a little glitchy for me…when the other person starts typing while I’m typing, my keyboard shrinks…want it to default to WiFi automatically….still randomly flips from SMS to RCS on some texts.
Once you get RCS going on yur iphone, there is still a chance it only works with some of your Android friends. Apparently their Android messaging app must have RCS enabled in the settings. Some android phones and apps have RCS enabled by default, and some don't... 🤷♂️
Someone said that carriers will need to have RCS enabled to allow Apple and Android users to communicate so I'm not sure what that means since Google Messages bypasses all carriers today. Maybe Apple RCS will not communicate directly with Google RCS Jibe and vice versa?
This latest beta has shown that Apple had to enable it with a beta release, if you see the posts and articles about B2 enabling it.
B2 enabled it to start with, then it seems some behind the scenes things then had to happen, over the first few days. Obviously there’s also the need for carriers to support RCS, I’ve nit dug into it, but not sure why some networks have it going and some don’t as yet.
I'm just wondering how long it'll be before Google unveils a new feature in the next version of the RCS spec: customisable bubble colours.
People have managed to get RCS to work for Pixel Devices, Samsung doesn’t seem to work. That’s all I know
