I am not able to add a contact to a group conversation. This contact is in another group conversation I have going but I can’t add them to another. The message says that they are not registered with i message. They have an android phone but that didn’t stop me from adding them before. Help?

iPhone 13, iOS 16

No you can only add someone to an existing imessage that consist of 3 or more users, you can't add an Android user. You probably added that android user in the beginning of the group chat.
