Updating Number and Apple ID Two questions If i get a new phone number is the easiest way to make sure my contacts have it to update my Apple ID? Versus having to text everyone individually? If I update my Apple ID - if there are people who I don't want to have my number, will they automatically have my new number? Even if they're blocked/not in my contacts?

icloud contact & phone number contact A specific person on my Messages has two contacts. One being their icloud and the other being their phone number. However when i text the phone number, the messages go green even if we are both connected to wifi. I tried deleting the number and re adding it but nothing changes. This may be because the person came back from holiday and switched sim cards? How can i delete their icloud and just message their number like usual?

Though you have not mentioned in which format the contact information is received on your message app.

Watch the GIF below which is self-explanatory.
