Texting From Android to iPhone? Google's New Update Might Make It Quirkier

Google has decided to match Apple’s energy with its Messages app.

This is similar to how the iPhone handles emoji reactions on text messages between iPhone and Android users.

These suggestions can be turned off should they feel too intrusive.

Google is also expanding availability for the voice message transcription feature introduced on the Pixel 7.

Google will partner with United Airlines to bring free RCS texting to flights over in-flight Wi-Fi.

This is similar to other airline offerings, which include free texting over services such as iMessage and WhatsApp.
