So, you back out. RCS is not forbidden in Switzerland. Thank you.

As for your other saying, millions of RCS users worldwide contradict you.

How many users worldwide are estimated of RCS?

As of early 2025, Rich Communication Services (RCS) has experienced 
significant growth in global adoption. In September 2024, Apple 
introduced RCS support with its iOS 18 update, adding approximately 900 
million potential users. This development, along with existing support 
on Android devices, has propelled the estimated number of active RCS 
users worldwide to over 2.1 billion. Looking ahead, projections suggest 
that by 2028, the number of active RCS subscribers could surpass 2.2 
billion globally. ​

Is RCS forbidden in Switzerland?

As of March 2025, there is no evidence to suggest that Rich 
Communication Services (RCS) is forbidden in Switzerland. RCS is a 
communication protocol designed to enhance traditional SMS messaging 
with features like read receipts, typing indicators, and high-resolution 
media sharing. Its adoption depends on mobile carriers and device 
manufacturers choosing to support it. While some countries have 
regulations affecting certain communication services, there are no 
reports indicating that Switzerland has banned or restricted the use of RCS.
