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

Text message forwarding Hi, I have text message forwarding turned on for my iPhone SE original on my iPhone 8. I am able to receive SMS texts on both but not send them on the SE. There is no SIM in the SE but apparently it should work over wifi Please could someone shed some light on this? Thank you [Personal Information Edited by Moderator]

Hi Maryhh517,

To aid us in better isolating this issue, can you confirm the following?

Is this an iMessage or a SMS that you're unable to send?
What happens when trying to send it? Do you receive any specific error?
Try sending on both Wi-Fi and cellular data, does the issue persist on both?

We'd also recommend looking over the following tips for if a message won't send on your iPhone.

If you can't send or receive messages on your iPhone or iPad

Should the issue persist, let us know some additional details, and we'll continue from there.

Cheers!
