Finally, Apple says it will work with the GSMA members on ways to further improve the RCS protocol. This particularly includes improving the security and encryption of RCS messages. Apple also told 9to5Mac that it will not use any sort of proprietary end-to-end encryption on top of RCS. Its focus is on improving the RCS standard itself.

Apple is going to use their weight to get the carriers to improve RCS itself, including adding encryption, so that they drop Google’s proprietary implementation.
