OS 18 added support for RCS cross-platform messaging between iPhone and Android. Android users can now edit RCS messages sent to iPhones using Google Messages, but iPhone users can't do the same yet.

Google Messages has started rolling out the new features Google announced last week, including support for custom RCS group chat icons and notification snoozing.

You’ve been able to edit texts sent between iPhones for years, and messages going from one Android device to another have been editable when using RCS for about twelve months. But although editable messages are now part of RCS, companies like Apple and Google need to support the feature – which is why it’s not available in iOS right now.
