i dunno will i be able to hook the phone to my pc and download all of my pictures and videos without having to deal with crazy file formats that won't download!!!
RCS from iPhone to Android stopped working for me about a week ago. I think it's on the carrier side, not Apple.
I'm wondering if some of the Android users I text with have RCS turned on
No, but if you upload them to your iCloud, Apple will do the necessary conversions for you. The problem isn't with iOS but with the system that Windows uses to recognize what a file contains (by the file name extension). HEIF and HEVC are well-established in the graphics and video communities. ProRes maybe not so much.i dunno will i be able to hook the phone to my pc and download all of my pictures and videos without having to deal with crazy file formats that won't download!!!
