蘋果今日向9to5Mac發表一篇聲明,宣布將於明年稍晚透過軟體更新支援RCS協定,這將為iP
hone與Android之間的訊息傳遞增加更多類似iMessage的功能。蘋果也不斷強調這並不會取
代iMessage。
「明年晚些時候,我們將增加對RCS Universal Profile的支援,這是目前由GSM協會釋出的
標準。 我們相信,與SMS或MMS相比,RCS Universal Profile將提供更好的互操作性體驗。
這將與iMessage一起併存,iMessage將繼續是蘋果使用者最好、最安全的訊息傳遞體驗。
」
In a surprising move, Apple has announced today that it will adopt the RCS (Rich
Communication Services) messaging standard. The feature will launch via a softw
are update “later next year” and bring a wide range of iMessage-style features
to messaging between iPhone and Android users.
Apple’s decision comes amid pressure from regulators and competitors like Googl
e and Samsung. It also comes as RCS has continued to develop and become a more m
ature platform than it once was.
RCS brings iMessage-style features to cross-platform texts
In a statement to 9to5Mac, an Apple spokesperson said that the company believes
RCS will offer better interoperability for cross-platform messages.
Later next year, we will be adding support for RCS Universal Profile, the standa
rd as currently published by the GSM Association. We believe RCS Universal Profi
le will offer a better interoperability experience when compared to SMS or MMS.
This will work alongside iMessage, which will continue to be the best and most s
ecure messaging experience for Apple users.
RCS brings many iMessage-style features to cross-platform messaging between iPho
ne and Android devices. This includes things like read receipts, typing indicato
rs, high-quality images and videos, and more.
Apple’s implementation of RCS will also give users the ability to share their l
ocation with other people inside text threads, the company says. Unlike regular
SMS, RCS can work over mobile data or Wi-Fi as well.
But at the same time, iMessage isn’t going anywhere. It will continue to be the
messaging platform used for all communication between iPhone users. RCS will si
mply supplant SMS and MMS and exist separately from iMessage when available. SMS
and MMS will also continue to be available as a fallback when needed, Apple say
s.
This is not Apple opening up iMessage to other platforms. Instead, it’s the com
pany adopting RCS separately from iMessage.
Apple also reiterates that iMessage is far more secure and privacy-friendly than
RCS. iMessage is end-to-end encrypted, and Apple just took that up a notch with
Advanced Data Protection for Messages in iCloud. Meanwhile, Apple says that RCS
does not currently support encryption that is as strong as iMessage.
Apple’s decision to adopt RCS follows years of pressure from some of its compet
itors, including Samsung and Google. Until today, the company resisted that pres
sure and instead doubled down on iMessage. It has, however, rolled out some impr
ovements to the SMS experience between iPhone and Android devices.
For example, Apple added better support for Tapbacks in iOS 16 for conversations
between iPhone and Android users. With iOS 17, Apple also brought features such
as threaded replies and message editing to iPhone users (but not Android users)
in SMS group chats.
Finally, Apple says it will work with the GSMA members on ways to further improv
e the RCS protocol. This particularly includes improving the security and encryp
tion of RCS messages.

【介紹或心得】
在Google多年的呼籲下終於成功讓蘋果讓步了
Later next year 應該是iOS 18?
