    Fix the goddamned failover to SMS you morons! My kids don’t have data plans and I usually keep data turned off on my phone (because Canada), I keep having to turn off RCS altogether because if I try to send them a message over RCS it doesn’t failover to SMS (yes, I have the option turned on), it just sits there dumfounded saying “can’t deliver”.

    You fail at failing.

      Yes this is the biggest issue. It’s caught me out several times where I thought the message was sent but wasn’t.

      I’ve reported it to Google. I hope someone reads the feedback…

      What does this mean? I’m in Canada and I’ve got data turned on virtually the entire time

        As in “data plans are stupid-expensive here”.

          Ah fair enough. Yeah moving here from a country where unlimited data was around $3 a month was a shock. That said I get 40 GB for $50 a month with Koodo so I’ve never even come close to reaching my limit.
