  • Apple iPhones on US Mobile’s Verizon-based Warp network now support RCS, the operator announced.
  • RCS isn’t available on the carrier’s other networks just yet, though, but this support is coming.

Apple’s iOS 18 update finally brought the RCS messaging standard to iPhones, allowing for a more modern texting experience with Android phones. This feature requires the support of carriers too, and US Mobile has confirmed it now supports the standard.

US Mobile revealed on Reddit that iPhones running on its Verizon-based Warp network now support RCS. The mobile virtual network operator (MVNO) added that support is also coming for its networks based on AT&T and T-Mobile.
