That would be nice
Gross :(
Allowing people to more easily sign in?
Half the people here are trying to de-google
Then this is irrelevant for them because they wouldn’t be using Google’s Messages application. They’d be using another one.
Unrelated, this is for accessing via messages.google.com if you want to dwgoogle don’t use GOOGLE messages.
If the qr code options stays then its absolutely a positive, but RCS is already a (very frustratingly) closed ecosystem: locking certain features behind an account would just kinda suck, since google messages (or I think maybe Samsung messages also) is the only way to use RCS presently
That’s literally not this. This is for accessing on tablets and computers via the web app.
Yes, I know. I’d like to have access to that feature without having to use my google account
Use another messaging services. It’s google messages.
RCS is the only way to get read receipts with most folks I know, and google messages is the only way to use RCS presently
If you have a problem with using a Google account on a Google product, don’t use that Google product. Use signal, WhatsApp or any other messaging service.
Scanning a QR is a lot quicker than signing into an account though.
Not when you’re already signed in on different devices
