What you need to know
- Google is adding RCS message archival on company-managed Pixels, allowing employers to view employee messages.
- The feature helps organizations meet strict compliance rules now that RCS breaks traditional carrier logging.
- Third-party archival apps can read message data on-device and even notify IT when messages are sent or edited.
- Archival works only on company-managed Pixels, and employees will see a clear notification when it's active.
