Remember the amazing Magic Compose feature that rolled out on Google Messages for RCS chats? Well, users of the app that text via SMS and MSM channels may finally benefit from this feature. This is great since not all conversations or chats on the Google Message platform are carried out via the RCS channel.
At the moment, text messages (SMS and MSM) don’t support this feature. Only those chats that are carried out through the RCS channel can make use of this AI-generative feature. But all of that is coming to an end as recent reports point out that Google is testing this feature for regular texts.
This will enable an all-around taste of this AI feature, which is currently lacking among users. With this, they can reimagine how they text others who aren’t using RCS messaging, such as Apple users. Not even the SMS and MSM barriers can stop Google Message users from experiencing the power of AI.
Google Message users chatting over text might soon be able to put Magic Compose to good use
If you are wondering what the Magic Compose feature is, you can check this article. With the help of this feature, users of the Google Message app could get responses to give those they are chatting with. It also brings various categories that can alter how your reply would sound.
There is even a category that lets users reply to messages using sing lyrics. This shows just how cool the Magic Compose feature is to use. But ever since this feature became available, it has only been available to a particular group of users.
For SMS texts, users were not able to try out this AI-generated replying feature. This broke the entire texting experience as users could interact with the feature on RCS chats and not on SMS texts. Now, the company is fixing this issue by making Magic Compose available for both RCS and SMS texts.
Before you get too excited, it is important to note that making the Magic Compose for SMS texts is in its beta tasting. It is not yet clear whether Google intends to launch its feature for usage to the public. The performance of this feature after the beta testing will determine whether it will be added for users texting over the RCS channel.
Beta testers note that the AI-generated feature for SMS texts tends to lack in some areas. Google will keep on working to fix areas where this feature falls short. After all, testing is concluded, then Magic Compose for texts will roll out to users globally.
