What annoys me is that Google still hasn't opened the API for RCS all these years later. That could at the very least open the possibility of more widespread adoption as a fallback for other apps instead of SMS. But instead they're too busy crying that Apple won't adopt it to actually be bothered to make a unified approach on their own turf. I don't see how they can imagine Apple will want to adopt it when they're keeping it so close to their chests that nobody else is allowed to use it other than basically them and Samsung. It's maddening.
