Text messages sending to friends and showing up under my gmail on their phone.

I changed SIM cards due to Sprint and T-mobile merging. Since then, some of my friends have told me my text messages are coming up under my gmail, not my phone number so they didn't know it was me...


any suggestions?

iPhone 8 Plus, iOS 14

Is your Apple ID actually your Gmail address? If so, the chances are you have sent an iMessage (to an Apple device), and are using your Apple ID at Settings > Messages > Send & Receive > Start New Messages From.
