Google Messages 'Automatically resend as text (SMS)' not working – PiunikaWeb

Google Messages is a popular app that allows users across the globe to communicate via SMS and RCS.
However, some are frustrated as they have been facing some difficulties when sending messages to offline contacts via RCS.



Multiple Google Messages users (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10) are experiencing an issue when sending messages even when the option to ‘Automatically resend as text (SMS/MMS)’ is enabled.
It is alleged that if one sends RCS messages and the recipient is offline then the messages are not automatically resent as SMS. Due to this bug, users often face delays in sending or receiving important messages.
The issue has been persistent for the past few months and remains unresolved to date.

A user says that their messages remain undelivered for hours if they have been sent as RCS messages. Also, they have tried using the automatic resend feature on different devices, but with no success.
Another user claims that the first message will not be sent if RCS is not available.
Does the RCS option to resend as text or sms/mms ever work? I often find unsent messages because of this feature not working properly.
