Samsung has released a new video in support of Google’s #GetTheMessage campaign which calls for Apple to adopt RCS or “Rich Communication Services,” the cross-platform protocol pitched as a successor to SMS that adopts many of the features found in modern messaging apps… like Apple’s own iMessage.

    Meanwhile outside of the United States basically no one uses iMessage. Precisely because it’s so terrible it interfacing with non-apple devices. Everyone just uses WhatsApp which will work with anything.

    Of course WhatsApp’s quite a crap program as well missing basic functionality but at least it’s not device specific.

      I’ve seen Telegram starting to replace WhatsApp a little, but WhatsApp is definitely still extremely popular.
