I am sending and receiving texts fine, except from my husband and son. When they text me, I just see a blank screen with a spinning symbol. We all have iPhones.

Text issues Yesterday in the middle of a 4-way family group text session I suddenly stopped receiving texts. I think we have figured out the problem is between my IPhone 6S plus and a Samsung S10e. She can receive my texts but I don’t receive or see hers. Has anyone else had this happen? How did you fix it? Thanks.
