I would love to replace the official Google messaging app I can't find an app that does RCS messaging. I need to be able to text between someone with an iPhone if that matters. Any suggestions?

your best bet (for now) is using an existing alternative what you want is "cross-platform + decentralized + E2EE"

there are several options, for example: matrix, delta chat, and XMPP

people will reccomend signal, it's centralized, don't use it
