Rich Communication Services (RCS) is a feature that allows you to send emojis, images, videos, embed web pages, and even use group messages, all from your main messaging app.
Getting started
You’ll need to download and open the Google Messages app and accept their terms and conditions. When you first open the app, you should be prompted to turn on active chat, which is Google’s more user-friendly name for RCS.
