Samsung Messages RCS

[alarsen77]

Hi my wife and I just got S20+ on Verizon. We were on T-Mobile and her S10 had the chat features option in samsung messages. But our new S20+ do not have it as an option. I use Google messages and it works fine on that on my phone but my wife prefers Samsung Messages. Does anyone know of it is supported on Samsung Messages on the S20+ on Verizon and may e it is going to take a little while to activate since we are new customers.

Samsung RCS is still rolling out. Just wait or use Google messager.

If it's like AT&T then it's disabled on the Samsung app and they want you to use their proprietary implantation of rcs. My wife is stubborn and won't switch to the Google messages app.

Yes, AT&T has their own crappy version of RCS called "Advanced Messaging" and it completely sucks. Nothing but problems. Google Messages is actual Universal RCS, which the carriers should be getting on board with but are dragging their feet. I do really like the stock messaging app on Samsung phones but the Advanced Messaging sucks so bad that I just can't stand using it. Google Messages is far better.

Both of our S20+ were bought at Verizon so I am guessing they aren't unlocked.

Tap text messages

Still no chat features. Read receipts for sms isn't the same as the chat features.
