A Google exec's jab at Apple about texting issues between iPhones and Android drew cheers and applause at a conference
Google took some time out of its annual developers presentation to call out Apple on stage, and the crowd ate it up.
"When you're texting in a group chat, you shouldn't have to worry about whether everyone is using the same type of phone," said Google exec Sameer Samat at the company's IO event, prompting some laughs and cheers from the audience. "Sending high-quality images and video, getting typing notifications, and end-to-end encryption should all just work," he added.
"We hope every mobile operating system gets the message and adopts RCS," he said, pausing as the crowd cheered and applauded loudly,"so we can all hang out in the group chat together — no matter what device we're using." The moment was Google's latest attempt to pressure Apple to adopt something called the the RCS messaging standard, or Rich Communications Services.If Apple were to adopt RCS, it would solve issues Android and iPhone users have long complained about when texting each other, such as blurry or compressed videos and photos.
