As we’ve been tracking, Google is now beginning to roll out “Profile discovery” in Messages for Android to establish your name and photo across the RCS app and others.

Once live, you’ll be prompted to “choose a name and picture to help anyone with your phone number or email recognize you in Google products,” like Messages. From the strings we spotted, Google might notify you when other people change their images. For comparison, iMessage gives you the option of whether to update an avatar.
