Bill Dudley on Apple announced support for RCS - making Android and iMessaging interoperable


Listen Later

There was very big news in the Messaging Industry last week, after a decade since Apple launched iMessage and Google had standardised on RCS, Apple announced that it plans to support RCS in 2024.  This will mean messaging interoperability between iOS and Android phones.  But what does it mean for the A2P or Rich Messaging Business (RBM)?

We reached out to Bill Dudley of Sinch to get his informed opinion about what it means.  Bill has a very good analysis of what we know, what it means and what it could ultimately mean.

We talked about

  • The probably timing of the roll out
  • The support for Universal Profile
  • The impact of the EU DMA Act
  • While P2P is announced, what does it mean for A2P (or C2B strictly)
  • The future of SMS – is there one?
  • We want to thank Bill for coming on as a very informed guest at short notice to give us all a heads up on the enormous implications of this shift in the market.

    Lyrics for Bull Mountain Ridge

    Music and Lyrics © Paul Thorn

    Stone Fox Dan was a Romeo man

    Made a livin’ sellin’ marijuana
    He went around turnin’ all the good lookin’ women on
    He wore a feather in his hat and drove a big black Caddy
    He was always lookin’ for a party
    He played Big Daddy to the women when the men wasn’t home
    Well now, Bull Mountain Hawk was the cock of the walk
    He said Stone Fox Dan needed killin’
    When he got to drinkin’, he was meaner than a copperhead
    He was leader of the clan…took the law in his hands
    When he caught Stone Fox with his woman
    Guess who’s sleepin’ at the bottom of the cold waterbed?
    And the Hawk said, “Take him on down below the Bull Mountain Bridge
    Tie his hands and throw him in the river
    You might as well give him his farewell party night”
    He said, “Knock him in the head…he’s better off dead
    Break his arms and throw him in the river
    If anybody asks, just tell `em he committed suicide”
    And the Hawk said, “Take him on down below the Bull Mountain Bridge
    Tie his hands and throw him in the river
    You might as well give him his farewell party night”
    He said, “Knock him in the head…he’s better off dead
    Break his arms and throw him in the river
    If anybody asks, just tell `em he committed suicide”
    And the Hawk said, “Take him on down below the Bull Mountain Bridge
    Tie his hands and throw him in the river
    You might as well give him his farewell party night”
    He said, “Knock him in the head…he’s better off dead
    Break his arms and throw him in the river
    If anybody asks, just tell `em he committed suicide”
    “If anybody asks, just tell `em he committed suicide”
