They finally compromised and Apple agreed to jump over if the parts of RCS that Google was gatekeeping were opened up.

Phase 1 of RCS on iOS will be sans E2EE sometime this year. Likely iOS 18 this fall. Phase 2 will roll in the security once the new open encryption protocol is good to go.

All in all, RCS looks like a lock as the next thing. All the major players are in.
