RCS in India

RCS in India -Thoughts about it.

Main post is in tech talk (link below)

Just a brief introduction here

- A protocol that was made to replace SMSes.

-Messages app by Google and Samsung's Chat application on Samsung devices are the only two applications that support RCS.

-We can send images, text and other forms of media without any hassle..

- If mine or my colleague's the internet was down, we had an option to retry sending the message as an SMS/MMS

- You can always be connected with your friends and family whether your internet was turned on or off. 

-Also, it helps save carrier charges when you are connected to the internet by forwarding them with the RCS protocol.

samsung Messages only support RCS on Jio as of now. Airtel isnt supporting RCS yet

[immi007]

Airtel support will come soon ... it have been rolled out already but it's facing losses.. so Airtel postponed it..
