Google Messages is now explicitly reminding you what name and profile you’re 'Sending as.' A 'Sending as' notice appears above the text field in RCS conversations, showing your Google Account profile picture and name. After sending a message in that thread, the line will disappear. This feature is rolling out with Google Messages beta (version 20241112_00_RC00).
