Isn't Google Chat a feature of Google Messages? It's what they call RCS for some reason.
Nope, different product with almost the exact same name lol.
Here's a bonus for more confusion: in Google Messages if your carrier doesn't self host RCS, that "Chat" toggle changes to a ”Google Jibe" one 🤦♂️
Edit: clarify app
It tells you at the bottom what backend you're using
Messages is sms, MMS, RCS. I'm not sure what chat uses, but it's a data protocol not tied to the cell network
they stopped calling it Chat in Google messages a while ago
Screenshot taken moments ago.
I know it's still dumb, but in that screenshot they are not using Chat anywhere as a proper noun. The option to get to this screen is no longer Chat settings it's RCA settings. Conversations it says RCS message instead of Chat.
that is chat not Chat (proper noun)
see it's dumb
