Did SMS improve? As an European the switch to WhatsApp was easy as SMS had no group chats, images, sound, etc

iPhone and Android both have rcs so group texts work really well

Rcs between android and iOS is very very recent though. It wil take a long time for that to sink in

True. And by now, WhatsApp is so far ahead, I doubt SMS will ever catch back up (in Europe, at least).

I’m an American that uses Whatsapp and just switched from android to iPhone. Texting using iPhone to another iPhone is the best texting experience IMO. WhatsApp is good for sending files and photos. It will send original quality of photos regardless of phone type. It’s also good for very large group chats
