Can anyone explain why Samsung own message app doesn't seem to support rcs we're as my s20 ultra did

[Pugs1957]

It does support RCS.

thanks pugs when I first got the phone on Thursday rcs wasn't working but it seems now to be working,

[Pugs1957]

Great. It can be a bit temperamental to set up.

I think personally a lot of the features didn't turn on till yesterday I have a feeling it was down to the network switching things on

I'm on S20+ and lately it doesn't work. At time it's there for a day and then nothing. RCS is permanently turned on but the function is certainly broken. Even if I download Google messages it doesn't work anymore. something has changed in the last 6 months.

i would say its more an network issue have you tried a factory reset and reloading to see if that works

[NV_UK]

it's not worth the hassle. Next year switching to iPhone at least they are reliable.

[deadpool3049]

I wouldn't say reliable when you consider there software updates slow the phones down year on year.
also you try getting them repaired via a 3rd party and your going to have fun with things being locked out.
as for being able to customise you phone good luck as your stuck with what they want you to do.
as for hassle it's straight forward restoring your phone.

What I really want to know if why Samsung decided to roll out the S21 with two Messaging apps when clearly the Google one will be updated instantly to remove all the Samsung-friendly features and thereby mess up RCS even further...

This phone is like child genius put it together without any supervision!
