When the dust settles on iPhone 16 and iOS 18, and the disappointment has faded over how much Apple Intelligence actually makes the first release, the big take-away will likely be RCS. But before you start playing with your iPhone’s messaging settings, WhatsApp may just have a new update to stop you in your tracks.
Apple’s u-turn on RCS was a genuine shock, given its stubborn resistance to adoption of what is the successor technology to SMS. Google campaigned for such a move,Netflix’s Best New Movie Arrives With A Perfect 100% Critic ScoreRCS should change everything.
Unsurprisingly, WhatsApp has been pushing its own cross-platform security hard to ensure it hits home, albeit the RCS encryption problem will ultimately be resolved, given Apple’s and Google’s commitment to that level of security. But WhatsApp’s has a better trick up its sleeve that should be impossible for RCS to match.
Telegram offers user names to enable others to contact you without giving them your number, and your number won’t ever be visible to them; that said, Telegram has its own, different security issues. But Signal is the benchmark for secure messaging, WhatsApp, Google and others use its encryption protocol for their own security after all, and it also now offers user names instead of phone numbers.This brings a powerful new way to protect your privacy.
