I am from the US and I agree that this debate is pointless. My wife is an immigrant and I've been using WhatsApp to communicate with her, her friends, and her family for years. I've convinced my family to use it after being forced to use inferior options that they suggested first. And I've convinced my employees to use it, mainly for security reasons. But everyone else still uses the default text message app around here, and it's the number one reason most of my friends use iPhone and the reason they don't want to message my android phone. It took years to get my family to switch so I have no hope of getting all my friends to use WhatsApp. Thankfully, with iPhone adopting RCS it should make conversations more pleasant for my iPhone buddies.

@@qazmko22 well, if they are going to allow voice messages to be sent via iMessage then they need to allow the user to hear the compete message without the phone locking after 15 seconds and then having to replay it. Perhaps the phone should be prevented from locking when there is a voice message playing. Or just allow the message to be played with the screen off (like telegram) and put the message control on the locksveen media control panel (like music) so user can pause it if they want. In which scenario would someone unlock their phone and then listen to the voice message and then suddenly have an intruder steal their phone and be able to hear the message when phone is locked? I don’t think it’s a security issue, it’s just poorly implemented. They’ll probably fix it next big update to iMessage. Typically they don’t listen to user feedback for these small logistical issues, they end up discovering it themselves when using the phone personally. At some meeting Tom Cook or Some other executive will say “by the way guys, iMessage voice messages cut off when screen locks”. Gotta change that. The one good thing about Apple is they all use their own devices. Unlike Android where they personally use Apple devices and so don’t notice these little things until there is a huge surge of feedback. That’s why Android has bugs and poor attention to detail for so long… engineers don’t even use the devices on their off time. Only at work.

Ability to use on many/pretty much all brands probably should have been a point too. This is perhaps the biggest point, that iMessage is not able to be used on any other brand makes it useless for most/many, and that they don't integrate RCS smacks of irony when they market their "security". Just like USBC they'll be dragged kicking and screaming but still make it dated when implemented, ie USB 2 speeds

With that being said, I’m excited to see what Google has for us in the future with Google messages! Not going to lie, as much as I like Google messages, I wish WhatsApp was the default messaging app for Android phones. That would create some SERIOUS competition for apple. WhatsApp has already done a lot of the features that are considered “apple exclusive” in this video. So, I’m excited to see what BOTH of these companies do to make messaging on android better.

Exactly. Phone use culture is different here. Maybe 5% of people I know use an Android device as it is. I think a big reason is because iPhone was very expensive to begin with and people in the US could afford it. iPhone wasn’t even available in a lot of countries to start. So android grabbed global market share and WhatsApp gave android users overseas an iMessage-like experience. In the US, iMessage simply works out of the box so there was no reason to download a third party app for US iPhone users.

Honestly at this point i wish google mandated an option in the setup of android phones to use a selection of default google apps or to straight up use stock android or to use the tweaked manufacturers skin*which is unlikely. Its so weird sometimes that some android users dont know what features are available because their phone uses a different version of an app like dialer or contacts etc. Something that sometimes works in appls favour is that everyone gets the same experience more or less and there's no guessing if someone else's iPhone can do something On android with the amount of options that are already out has in some cases created a mess since there's no standardised experience.

This video missed a huge advantage for Google Messages, at least on a Pixel. That is Conversation Bubbles. You can have different conversations displayed as separate stacked bubbles overlayed on top of whatever is already on your screen for quicker access and faster conversation switching. This works for other chat apps also so you can manage chats on different apps as if they were all nearly integrated into a single master chat platform. This is a complete game changer of a feature that all by itself elevates the RCS Messaging experience to an equal or better overall multimodal chat experience.

One huge difference thought... RCS comes out of the box for every Android and has all these features between all Android phones, where as iMessage is exclusively on iPhone and only between iPhone so in my opinion, RCS is the much better option. Having iMessage as an option on iPhones is a cool feature, but we shouldn't still be on sms/mms when texting and Android

Animated emojis on Android, changing bubble colors, and keyboard customization should give android 300 points.

Having used both RCS on Android and iMessage on my iPhone, I can honestly say each have their strengths and weaknesses. iMessage is still the standard and between that and FaceTime, is why most people still buy an iPhone. But there’s little in customization which is where RCS is better. Honestly, with the head start that iOS has had over Android for years, they should be light years ahead of anything on Android. But, Apple is greedy and lazy so iMessage is basically the same it’s always been except for a few new features here and there. And most of those “new features” are ones inspired from Android. iOS has excellent ecosystem sync second to none and Android is still trying to catch up there. Really, neither is technically better than the other because it’s all subjectively based on each individual’s preferences.
