Android Upgrading SMS for Rogers customers

Upgrading SMS for Rogers customers on Android

A significant number of us depend on SMS consistently — to make arrangements, confirm an arrangement, or remain in contact with companions. Be that as it may, even as smartphones have turned out to be all the more capable and the applications we use on them more energetic, SMS hasn’t changed a ton. It’s still out and out content. 

We trust this standard informing knowledge ought to be better, so through a portable industry activity called RCS (Rich Communications Services), we’ve focused on working with bearers and producers to update SMS to a more upgraded informing background for individuals all over the place. 

A month ago, we declared our first transporter supporting this wealthier informing background. Presently we’re bringing RCS to much more individuals by working with Rogers Communications to dispatch RCS informing to their Android customers in Canada. 


Rogers customers will have entry to upgraded highlights — including bunch visit, high-res photograph sharing and read receipts — as a component of their standard informing background on Android. You can get to the overhauled informing background by downloading the Messenger application for Android gadgets from the Google Play Store, and the administration will be controlled by the Jibe RCS cloud. We’re starting to reveal the upgraded informing knowledge today, and it will be accessible to all Rogers customers soon.
