I am sadly encountering an issue where RCS stops working a few seconds into opening a conversation (can barely manage to finish sending a message). Only a reboot reenables RCS again for a few seconds. Hope it‘s only a temporary hiccup and no lasting B4 issue.
//EDIT: Could pinpoint it, RCS stops working while on wifi… can literally toggle it off by connecting to wifi and when I turn off wifi / disconnect from my network it pops up again. Can anyone confirm? Hope it‘s just work wifi messing with things.
In case anyone can reproduce, please report it via the Feedback app so it gets attention (my ID is FB14462627 with a reproduction video)
//EDIT 2: Did some tests with my co-worker and can confirm, that this is indeed bricking RCS. Verified with 3 wifi networks (RCS disconnects) and their mobile hotspot (RCS continues to function). All their RCS messages popped up once I got off wifi, so nothing is lost at least… although I don‘t know how long your RCS presence is registered for with that bug (e.g. does it start to boot your RCS status from your number if you stay on wifi for too long).
Anyways, I don‘t seem to be the only one with this issue (someone from the Apple Subreddit Discord can reproduce and also submitted feedback).
