I'm looking at switching from Skinny to Slingshot for my mobile provider.

 

 

 

On Skinny I have RCS enabled on Google Messages, but I couldn't get a definitive answer from Slingshot whether the feature would work with them.

 

 

 

Does anyone have this feature working with Slingshot as their provider?

 

 

 

Thanks!

The implementation of RCS in Google Messages is not mobile network dependent in NZ. It works via Google's servers as an OTT service like iMessage, not via the mobile network operator's servers. Slingshot will not be able to tell you anything about Google's RCS as it is not a service Slingshot operates.

 

In short - yes. :)
