Some carriers may turn on RCS chats by default, in which case you don’t have to do anything to start taking advantage of their, well, advantages. However, if your Android phone isn’t set up for RCS yet (and your carrier does support it), here’s what to do:
- Keep an eye out for a “Do more with Messages” notification — this indicates when your carrier supports RCS, and that your phone isn’t currently using it.
- Open the Google Messages app and select Get Started.
- Select Next.
- Choose Yes when prompted to turn on RCS.
After the initial setup, you can turn RCS on and off by opening the Messages app and selecting your profile icon.
- Select Message Settings.
- Choose RCS Chats.
- Turn off RCS Chats to disable the feature for Messages.
- Enable RCS Chats to turn it back on.
You can also check your RCS chat status by selecting the RCS Chats option in Settings. Connected means you’re all set to use RCS; Setting up means your number is still being verified (if this takes too long, tap Retry); and Disconnected means RCS is currently unavailable, possibly due to no internet connection.
