My phone has stopped sending sms, only iMessages. So I cannot text anyone who doesn’t have an iPhone. How I can I fix this? I have an iPhone 8plus.

Settings, Messages, turn on SMS and MMS

Settings, Messages, Send & receive, ensure the option to start new messages is against your phone number not your email address.

Then restart the phone or Force restart iPhone – Apple Support (UK)
