Like what? I know there is a difference in how group chats are handled, but thats a compatibility issue, not a rich chat feature. The only thing I can think of is Apples stupid push for more emojis and even worse Memojis. Otherwise, pics, gifs, emojis work between Apple and Android. Seems like its the green v blue and group chat edits that are the differences.
I can send them fine on Verizon SMS, from Android to Apple. Apple decided that sending via SMS, regardless of carrier limit, they get wrecked. When I send the same video back to Android from my iPhone, the video is shit.
I’ve tested this repeatedly across carriers. Since Verizon doesn’t seem to have an MMS size limit, it makes it pretty clear what’s going on.

But maybe I dont know.
Being able to send videos that don’t look godawful would be nice
That’s just apple refusing to use rcs, so it changes to sms, which uses the phone connection, not the data connection.

Blame carriers for limiting MMS sizes.
They look just fine over RCS. Which everyone else supports and apple could even integrate support for into iMessage.
Even straight up MMS on most carriers has no limit or a generous enough one that a short clip comes through just fine.
