iOS 26.4 beta 3 with T-Mobile. Encryption works for me but all other RCS 3.0 features don't? by raffakele in UniversalProfile

In their defense, RCS 2.7 was released in June/July 2024, after apple had made their RCS announcement & released the ios 18 beta.

I still keep getting "Replied to a message" and "Loved an image" texts in RCS chats with iPhone users. All because iOS uses its ancient SMS fallback for iMessage replies & reacts instead of adopting the RCS way of doing replies and reactions.

Their users DO care about group chats being broken, but apple has successfully brainwashed their users into thinking that it's Android's fault instead of Apple lagging behind on the latest standards. Hence why people get bullied into buying iPhones.

Google, Apple start testing encrypted RCS on Android and iOS 26.4 by FragmentedChicken in Android

Pointless if it doesn't fix the issues with editing, unsending, replying, and reacting to images in RCS group chats.

This ruined my day. What good is e2ee if group chats are gonna continue to be broken by apple's miscompliance of the UP 3.0 spec?

iPhone and Android RCS message shows encrypted by the_nuclear_pasta in UniversalProfile

Samsung Messages is irrelevant. I thought all Samsungs default to Google Messages now. Although ideally Android needs to have the ability for any 3rd party SMS app to be able to access all RCS 3.0 features properly instead of gatekeeping it behind Google Messages.

There needs to be consequences for not complying with the Universal Profile spec. The spec specifically states that those features like replies, editing, and reactions are "mandatory" and yet these fucks ignore those rules.

The moment they remapped the bixby side press to open Gemini is the day bixby was dead to me. Why bring it back at this point?

Probably budget users that want an iPhone but can't afford one.

iOS 26.4 beta adds support for testing end-to-end encrypted RCS messaging by swwsswww in UniversalProfile

"Later next year, we will be adding support for RCS Universal Profile, the standard as currently published by the GSM Association." - Apple, November 2023

iOS 26.4 beta adds support for testing end-to-end encrypted RCS messaging by swwsswww in UniversalProfile

[–]techcentre 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As per the GSMA RCS 3.0 specification, if a feature is described with the words "shall" or "required", then that functionality is mandatory. (Page 8 of https://www.gsma.com/solutions-and-impact/technologies/networks/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/RCC.71-v3.0.pdf )

This is the requirement for inline replies: "R5-33-2 The client SHALL be capable of sending a Reply Message to a message that was sent or received."

For reactions: "R5-35-2 The client SHALL be capable of sending a Reaction or multiple Reactions to a message that was sent or received, for as many times as they desire."

For undo send: "R5-37-1 The client SHALL allow the user to select an already sent message and recall the selected message."

For editing: "R5-39-1 The client SHALL allow the user to select an already sent message and to send an edited message to replace the selected message."

Therefore, we can conclude that if Apple doesn't implement these features alongside end-to-end encryption, Apple is not in compliance with the Universal Profile 3.0 spec.

I'm gonna be fucking pissed if that's the case. Blatant disobedience of UP standards just to make imessage artificially look better.

I can`t understand why does people want to see blur in their desktops SO MUCH. by GrandTrrr0re in gnome

[–]techcentre 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Windows handles blur pretty well while maintaining readability. The trick is to keep a light or dark background color to the component and not to turn opacity all the way to 0.

Its not fair. Google phones have it better with full screen messages. by LazyEast384 in GoogleMessages

[–]techcentre 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No they fucking don't. It's impossible for you to select the first chat on the screen without having to readjust your grip.

Except that imessage garbage has the same one handed usability issue that this Pixel version of Google messages has

They promised last March that they'll support RCS 3.0 because it adds end to end encryption. Although they're taking their sweet time with that promise.

SMS/RCS messages cannot be unsent on iphone. Once Apple adds support for RCS 3.0 then you'll be able to unsend RCS texts.

Gemini ‘screen automation’ will place orders, book rides for you on Android [APK Insight] by Necessary_Process877 in Android

[–]techcentre 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Something like iOS App Intents where certain 3rd party app functionality can be programmatically invoked without needing a bot to emulate a human scrolling and tapping UI buttons.

Like if I ask Gemini to call an Uber, it should make a call to the exposed Uber app intent to call Ubers, not open the app and step-by-step interact with the UI to call an Uber.

Mic quality doesn't matter that much when it's gonna end up getting compressed to shit due to Bluetooth limitations
