My family already uses signal as are default form of communication between each but the point that I forgot to add was for the 1% of conversation. Some of my family member have there own businesses that mostly use email but when we are in the field we use regular SMS/MMS/imessage for quick communication between “us” and the client. At least here we most only use plain SMS or iMessage if applicable is used because most people see messaging apps like Signal, WhatsApp and other third party apps for personal use only.


RCS vs SMS/MMS?
So in the new upcoming major feature update for IOS, Apple is adding RCS support in there messaging app. What are the privacy implications of adopting RCS? Is there any other apps that have RCS support on Android other than Google's own messaging app? The reason for my asking is because I was considering migrating my relatives' messaging app to a RCS supported one because they will probably most likely enjoy the extra bandwidth of RCS. Note, they're already using Signal, Telegram, and WhatsApp for most of their conversations.
