Messages to Android won't send

I've had my iPhone XR for a few months, but recently I've had trouble sending SMS and MMS to androids. My friends send me pics and I never get them, or get them in about 15 hrs.


Worked great until just a few days ago. Sometimes the SMS messages don't send at all unless I turn on airplane mode and then leave the data on without wifi.


Any ideas what's wrong? I already tried restarting my phone, but no dice as far as I've noticed.

iPhone XR, iOS 16

If nothing in this article helps, you will need to contact your carrier for assistance. SMS and MMS are carrier features.
