STILL seeing question marks instead of emojis

Why do we keep sliding backwards? Emojis used to be correctly sent between iphones and androids, but for about 9 months I have been getting all question marks from an android user even though he updated his operating system and so did I.

iPhone 12 Pro Max, iOS 16

My partner went to 2 different AT&T stores regarding his newish Android phone. They both told him there was nothing he could do about sending question marks instead of emojis. Then I found this fix from 4 years ago on an AT&T blog and it worked!!!

Step 4. Press Text Messages
