Google, which is in the middle of a campaign to get Apple to support the RCS platform, used the song to help its cause.
In the tweet, Google wrote, “The Android team thinks Drake’s new song “Texts Go Green” is a real banger. It refers to the phenomenon when an iPhone user gets blocked. Or tries to text someone who doesn’t have an iPhone. Either way, it’s pretty rough. If only some super-talented engineering team at Apple would fix this. Because this is a problem only Apple can fix. They just have to adopt RCS, actually. It would make texting more secure too. Just sayin’. Great track tho.”
It is that site, but for Google Fi users, it has an option to switch from being an interface to your phone (which includes RCS features) to an independent online service (much like Google Hangouts used to be). But selecting that option is only supported for Fi and it will not support RCS on either the website OR the phone.

Interesting. I am on Fi but haven’t seen that option. I’ll have to poke around a bit more.
I turned it on for a couple of days when it first came on but it really messed with my texting and I hated it. Why implement a feature that makes it worse for fi customers?
