Green, means its an SMS/MMS message so either the recipient does not have an internet connection to receive iMessages (blue) or is not an Apple device.


To send messages including pictures to a non Apple device you must have a connected iPhone.


Make sure the iPad has been correctly connected to an iPhone using the same Apple ID, and that Text Message forwarding is turned on for the iPad.
