Cannot send files to Android Phones

Apparently this seems to be a very very major Apple issue as to many people have written. Apple’s response seems to be, ‘Just restart your device,’ which is Not the answer especially when I’ve restarted this device 5 times already.

Can someone kindly explain to me why now, with an IPhone 13 files cannot be sent to android phones and many times even photos cannot be sent? I’ve had several different models of IPhones and I’ve never had this issue with previous iPhones. Never.

I have the issue all the time now with this device. What in these systems upgrades has Apple done to prevent file and photo sharing from iPhones to android has the Apple corporation done?

iPhone 13 Pro Max, iOS 16

SMS/MMS is a phone carrier feature, that you pay them monthly, you don't pay Apple that.
