Unable to send iMessages to myself on my iPhone X When sending a "text" message to myself using my iPhone X, it only sends SMS messages (green bubble). I cannot send iMessage (blue bubble) to myself using my iPhone. There is no issue with sending iMessages to all my other contacts, the only issue is with sending to myself when using my iPhone X with iOS 16.0.2 installed. I am able to send iMessages (blue bubble) from my MBP 2015 and 2021 versions all the time with no issues. After syncing, my iPhone X shows MBP iMessage with blue bubbles. How to fix and keep it fixed? I've tried restarting, signing out/in to iCloud, disable/enable iMessages on both iPhone and MBP. Help! Paul

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 blancss,

Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. We understand that you're having an issue texting a specific contact. To clarify, is the message being sent as an SMS or iMessage? If it's an SMS, you'll want to work with your carrier, since they control routing and delivery for SMS messages. You can check out article, If you can't send or receive messages on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch for actions you can try to correct this issue.

If the message you're sending is through iMessages, let us know the exact error message you're receiving. This can help shed light on the best options towards a solution.

Best regards.
