   I ran some research, which, if correct, means the only client that will   
   work for most people is Google Messages with RCS enabled, and where   
   EVERYONE on each of the groups has RCS enabled (and a few other caveats).

   Just a side note that it works for me on (the last known good version of)   
   PulseSMS, but most people aren't using PulseSMS like I do.   
      
   So, for most people, the "only" one that I think will work, is Google   
   Messages, and even then, there is a list of caveats that must be checked.
