Hey just found out about Beeper through this post and it looks like it could be a very nice fit for communicating with Apple friends/co-workers while on Android. It is very nice to find out about this app.

> Tough to penalize us because Android does not expose RCS APIs

As someone speaking from a genuine place of ignorance, the Google page relating to RCS https://jibe.google.com/ seems to imply that RCS is just a universal specification and there are a number of documents that seem relevant after a search for "gsma rcs specification".

Is this an Android permissions thing where the only practical way to implement RCS support would be through a Google-supplied API?
