Group texts to Android not working I had an iPhone 11 and transferred everything to a new iPhone 14 Pro. I have a group text with 3 iPhone users and 1 Android user. It was working with the iPhone 11, but when I tried to use an iMessage group text to them, it always said, “Not delivered” and I don’t get any texts from the group anymore (doesn’t show as an error to any of them). I tried all of the online tips of updating, deleting, restarting, checking SMS settings, and resetting network settings. I tried messaging everyone individually and texts all worked, even with the Android user. What can I do? It’s ridiculous!

IPhone 14 Pro will not send or receive a Text if there are non-Apple devices included I have tried all the recommended changes and I am updated to IOS16.1.1 I can send a solo text to an Android device and receive text from a solo Android device. However, if trying to send a group text (which includes Android) it will “not deliver”. If a group tries to send me a text with Android devices included I will not receive the text. The text can even originate from an iPhone 13 and if Androids are included it will not come through. I have turned iMessage on and off. I have confirmed the phone number being used. I have done a hard power down/up on the phone. I have reset all Network connections iMessage is turned on Send as SMS is turned on MMS messaging is turned on Group messaging is turned on Filter unknown senders is turned off Send read receipts is turned off Clearly Apple has a problem that needs to be admitted with a forecasted date for a software fix. Thanks for the help, Steve

Hello Mattbman25,

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities. It sounds like there are issues receiving texts from two specific contacts. We'll do what we can to help.

Make sure these numbers or contacts aren't blocked: Block phone numbers, contacts, and emails on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

Also, verify that "Send as SMS" is enabled in Settings > Messages.

Thanks and have a great day.
