• iOS 18 beta 2 is now available to those enrolled in Apples developer program, and it surfaces an RCS toggle for some users.
• While eligible users can freely toggle the new RCS option in the Settings app, the RCS functionality itself doesnt seem to work reliably, if at all.
• Apple may have to work with individual carriers to enable RCS, which could limit the features availability.

Yesterday, Apple released iOS 18 beta 2 to users enrolled in its developer program. Beyond supporting macOS Sequoias iPhone Mirroring feature, this pre-release build introduces an RCS toggle in the Settings app. Theres a catch, however; not every beta user sees the new RCS toggle, and not all who have it can use the RCS feature itself.

According to 9to5Mac, iOS 18 beta 2s code suggests that Apple is working with carriers individually to update their bundles that ship with iOS. So, until your carrier adopts RCS support, you likely wont be able to use the feature.
