Google recently announced that it will add E2EE end-to-end encrypted group chat service to its RCS SMS to ensure the security of SMS content delivery, and finally announced earlier that it will provide a testing experience in beta form.
The RCS text message promoted by Google has added E2EE end-to-end encryption function since November 2020, but at that time it was mainly for encrypting the content of single-person messaging. It was not announced to join the group chat service until Google I/O 2022 this year. encryption and is expected to be tested in the next few weeks.
