For years you've heard of the potential of the RCS, a protocol that replaces the SMS with advanced functions that we are now able to access on apps like the Mesage and the Whatsapp.
Unfortunately, very little was shown by this technology, and only Google and Samsung have started to move.
But today four leading mobile operators -- AT&T, Sprent, T-Mobile and Verizon -- announced new co-operation “Joint Message Exchange Initiative.” This co-operation will offer a unified experience RCS between companies in the United States and globally.
The new service will be offered at Android in 2020. Details of how operators will bring this technology are few, while only Android is mentioned missing Google and Samsung.
The IOS also didn't speak at all. Major technology offers for businesses. Operators think the RCS will be “backbonne” of any technical and retail support to consumers from businesses.
