Encryption protection is a complex feature, so it is unique to RCS protocol conversations. Therefore, the feature will only include conversations between Android users, as iMessage doesn’t support RCS on iPhone.
Until now, the Google did not announce the final release of the novelty. However, the distribution appears to have been global. The update is expected to roll out gradually over play store.
