If anyone is like me and recently switched from an Android phone to an Iphone and you can send SMS messages to android users but cannot receive messages- make sure if you were using RCS messages on your android phone you DE-REGISTER your phone number from RCS chats. https://messages.google.com/disable-chat

After I did this it fixed it and there are not a lot of threads regarding this out there online.
