I’ve been on the iOS 18 beta for the last month or so and RCS support has been super smooth. Still “green bubbles” so it’s hard to distinguish at a glance from SMS, but there are headers every time it switches between the two like when switching between iMessage and SMS
RCS on android is similar, and when IOS 18 comes out of beta it’ll finally support RCS which basically solves this completely. Uses wifi or data, sms fallback, works cross platform, and allows for high quality pictures/video, read receipts and reactions
