Have you tried going into your Settings, Messages… and do either of the following; if IMessages is toggled to on, go further down to SMS and ensure it is also toggled to On… this will help ensure that if a message can’t be delivered by IMessage it should be delivered by SMS. Another option to test is to Toggle IMessage to off, and ensure both SMS and MMS are toggled to on. This would force all messages to be sent by SMS/MMS…however keep in mind there are size limitations to your messages sent this way! Good Luck.

Report the issue to your phone carrier SMS is their feature.
I have spent hours working with TMobile techs. They keep saying there are no problems. I’m at the point of switching carriers or buying a separate android device to text my business associates and friends who don’t use iOS.
I can't send from iPhone messages to Android users
