Messaging Issues ?????

Lately when I text message someone with an iPhone their number comes up green instead blue. I know they have an iPhone. But for some reason when I click on their options, e-mail or phone number and select phone number it shows up as blue in my text message to them. This has been happening a lot lately.


Any ideas why ? We both. have the same update iOS on our iPhones so I know it's not that.

iPhone 15 Pro Max, iOS 17

Thank you I turned Messages OFF and also turned Off my iPhone 15 Pro Max.

Once I turned the iPhone back on I then turned Messages back ON.

That seemed to work now.

Thank you for your assistance.

best wishes,

Karl
