- Google Messages is getting a new “Send Photos Faster” option.
- It is likely meant for image sharing over RCS.
- When enabled, the option lowers the resolution of an image for faster sending.
Google Messages is getting a new feature that will help you send photos faster by lowering image resolution. The feature, spotted by 9to5Google, likely applies to RCS messaging since images sent via SMS and MMS are already of much lower resolution. On the other hand, users can send and receive high-quality photos through RCS, the modern protocol that allows for iMessage-like features such as read receipts, location sharing, encryption, and more.
