RCS with Apple iPhone iOS 18?

Still no RCS for iPhone on IOS 18? Apparently AGL uses Optus as its carrier & so perhaps this question is better directed there. Still, RCS promises a far better ability to communicate messages & attachments with Android uses instead of the far too common bounces back. When are we going to see this enabled?
