We're well into the process of converting the Messaging app included in GrapheneOS into a modern app. We'll be making a new release later today with a completely overhauled user interface written in Android Compose. We've made a massive amount of other improvements and bug fixes beyond that too.
I don’t mind finding alternative apps for my gallery and etc but RCS would be amazing. And I’m not sure it’s feasible for a third party app right now so Graphene itself doing it will be awesome!
Yeah it probably will be pretty difficult. Google has a chokehold on it but I trust Graphene devs to find the minimum possible surface to j trace with Google while having functional RCS. And just not needing Google’s messenger app will be a huge plus for me.

I agree but how does RCS actually work? My understanding is that it is particularly difficult to implement.
