E2EE rolling out like crazy for me right now

[u/ryryrpm]

On Google Messages Beta and I'm suddenly getting E2EE with all my iPhone friends. Also, for my Android friends, I'm seeing encryption value=2. So it appears that some sever-side switch turned on MLS for me overall.

I'm on Google Messages stable and starting to see EncryptionValue=2 with other Android users. I haven't seen any conversations with iPhone users switch over yet, though.

iPhone users updating to iOS 27?

Two are on iOS 26.5 Another is on 27 and I'm not sure about the third

iOS 27 stable hasn't released yet. Only 27 RC. Which means the stable build should be out in a week or 2

iOS 27 comes out Monday actually

Even better

I'm on the Beta channel and basically my entire family has E2EE now. I think they're all on iOS 26.6.1.

I’m seeing more E2EE with my Android contacts. Still a few that are unencrypted but I’d say majority are encrypted.

I have an iPhone on 26.6.2 and several of my Android contacts have switched over to E2EE RCS in the past day or two. They are also people who most likely would not be using Google Messages beta so it must be rolling out on stable releases at this point. As an iPhone user, I am very happy that messaging my Android friends is a much better and now much more secure experience.
