{"id":33,"count":64,"description":"<h1>Google Chat, free alternative of Whatsapp?<\/h1>\r\nThey have finally arrived for all\u00a0<strong>users of Messages for Android (Google Chat Whatsapp for free?) <\/strong>, at least those of France, Mexico, the United Kingdom and the United States, the &quot;<em>Chat functionality<\/em>&quot;. We are talking about the now famous\u00a0<strong>RCS messages<\/strong>, evolution of the old SMS. Google has announced the\u00a0<em>rollout<\/em>\u00a0global of his new chat, with which he aims to do\u00a0<strong>competition with Telegram, WhatsApp and Apple&#039;s iMessage<\/strong>\u00a0making use of the RCS (Rich Communication System) protocol. The new Google chat, in theory, is already available in Italy but, in practice, still no Italian mobile operator\u00a0<strong>really supports messages\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/tecnologia.libero.it\/gli-sms-2-0-sono-in-arrivo-cosa-sono-e-come-funzionano-31777\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">RCS<\/a><\/strong>. Here, therefore, there is still to wait while in other countries, Google has officially started to compete with the aforementioned apps. Waiting for our telephone operators to decide to marry this new technology, let&#039;s see what it is, how to activate it and, above all, why do it.\r\n<h1><\/h1>\r\n<h1><\/h1>\r\n<h1><img class=\"size-full wp-image-16261 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/sendapp.live\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/download.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"225\" \/><\/h1>\r\n<h2><strong>Google Chat: how to activate it<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n<strong>Google Chat<\/strong>, in reality, it does not exist: there is the chat functionality within the Google Messages app, which is also used to send and receive traditional SMS. However, if the user is connected to a mobile operator that supports the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/tecnologia.libero.it\/sms-addio-arriva-la-soluzione-di-google-che-sfida-whatsapp-31226\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>RCS protocol<\/strong><\/a>, then he can take advantage of the &quot;<em>Chat functionality<\/em>\u201dIncluded in the app. To do this, however, he must update the Messages and Operator Services apps to the latest version. Then it must set Messages as the default app also to read and send SMS. At this point you must check if your operator already supports RCS: just open the Messages app and go up\u00a0<em>Settings&gt; Chat features<\/em>. If everything is ok, then the user can use it\u00a0<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/tecnologia.libero.it\/google-lapp-messaggi-diventera-lanti-whatsapp-come-funziona-29719\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">the Messages app<\/a>\u00a0like WhatsApp or Telegram.<\/strong>\r\n<h3><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/sendapp.live\/en\/2020\/06\/16\/sms-2-0-di-google-cosa-sono-e-come-utilizzarli\/?preview_id=16246&amp;preview_nonce=c5fa3499af&amp;post_format=standard&amp;_thumbnail_id=16249&amp;preview=true\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Google<\/a> Chat: the advantages<\/strong><\/h3>\r\nThe\u00a0<strong>RCS protocol<\/strong>\u00a0offers users the same functionality already tested on the many instant messaging apps: free sending of messages, possibility of knowing if the other has received and displayed the message, possibility of knowing if he is writing a reply, group chat etc etc. As for the free messages, however, there is a clarification: exchange messages with the &quot;<em>Chat functionality<\/em>&quot;From Google Messages\u00a0<strong>it costs nothing if we are under Wi-Fi coverage<\/strong>. Otherwise if the exchange of messages takes place under coverage of mobile data, then the operator may charge costs.\r\n<h1><\/h1>\r\n&nbsp;","link":"https:\/\/sendapp.live\/en\/tag\/google-chat-lalternativa-gratuita-a-whatsapp\/","name":"chat","slug":"google-chat-alternative-free-to-whatsapp","taxonomy":"post_tag","meta":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.3 (Yoast SEO v27.3) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>chat Archivi - SendApp - Software Whatsapp Marketing<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Sono finalmente arrivate per tutti gli\u00a0utenti di Messaggi per Android (Google Chat Whatsapp gratis?) , almeno quelli di Francia, Messico, Regno Unito...\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/sendapp.live\/en\/tag\/google-chat-alternative-free-to-whatsapp\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"chat Archivi\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Sono finalmente arrivate per tutti gli\u00a0utenti di Messaggi per Android (Google Chat Whatsapp gratis?) , almeno quelli di Francia, Messico, Regno Unito...\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/sendapp.live\/en\/tag\/google-chat-alternative-free-to-whatsapp\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"SendApp - Software Whatsapp Marketing\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/sendapp.live\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/download.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"225\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"225\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:site\" content=\"@sendapp_live\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"CollectionPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/sendapp.live\\\/tag\\\/google-chat-lalternativa-gratuita-a-whatsapp\\\/\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/sendapp.live\\\/tag\\\/google-chat-lalternativa-gratuita-a-whatsapp\\\/\",\"name\":\"chat Archivi - SendApp - Software Whatsapp Marketing\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/sendapp.live\\\/it\\\/#website\"},\"description\":\"Sono finalmente arrivate per tutti gli\u00a0utenti di Messaggi per Android (Google Chat Whatsapp gratis?) , almeno quelli di Francia, Messico, Regno Unito...\",\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/sendapp.live\\\/tag\\\/google-chat-lalternativa-gratuita-a-whatsapp\\\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/sendapp.live\\\/tag\\\/google-chat-lalternativa-gratuita-a-whatsapp\\\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\\\/\\\/sendapp.live\\\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"chat\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/sendapp.live\\\/it\\\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/sendapp.live\\\/it\\\/\",\"name\":\"SendApp\",\"description\":\"Automate Your Messages &amp; Grow Your Business\",\"publisher\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/sendapp.live\\\/it\\\/#organization\"},\"alternateName\":\"SendApp WhatsApp Marketing\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":{\"@type\":\"EntryPoint\",\"urlTemplate\":\"https:\\\/\\\/sendapp.live\\\/it\\\/?s={search_term_string}\"},\"query-input\":{\"@type\":\"PropertyValueSpecification\",\"valueRequired\":true,\"valueName\":\"search_term_string\"}}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"Organization\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/sendapp.live\\\/it\\\/#organization\",\"name\":\"SendApp\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/sendapp.live\\\/it\\\/\",\"logo\":{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/sendapp.live\\\/it\\\/#\\\/schema\\\/logo\\\/image\\\/\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/sendapp.live\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2025\\\/04\\\/Logo-Sendapp-300x60-1.png\",\"contentUrl\":\"https:\\\/\\\/sendapp.live\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2025\\\/04\\\/Logo-Sendapp-300x60-1.png\",\"width\":300,\"height\":60,\"caption\":\"SendApp\"},\"image\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/sendapp.live\\\/it\\\/#\\\/schema\\\/logo\\\/image\\\/\"},\"sameAs\":[\"https:\\\/\\\/www.facebook.com\\\/sendapp.live\",\"https:\\\/\\\/x.com\\\/sendapp_live\",\"https:\\\/\\\/www.instagram.com\\\/sendapp.live\",\"https:\\\/\\\/www.youtube.com\\\/channel\\\/UC2gaLpi0-OJLG4CFbOr6mLw\",\"https:\\\/\\\/it.trustpilot.com\\\/review\\\/sendapp.live\"],\"description\":\"Piattaforma italiana di WhatsApp Marketing con API ufficiali Meta.
