Group messages not working to android users.

Just fixed my iPhone 12 group messages with android users not working. Go to Settings/messages then turn off MMS messaging and restart your phone. Next Turn on your phone, go back to Settings/messages and turn MMS messaging on again. Now try to send your group messages again.

This fixed the problem on my iPhone 12 and my wife's 13.

Group chat messages not sending on iOS 26.3 When I upgraded to iOS 26.3 on my iPhone 16, iMessage stopped sending group text messages to groups. I have MMS and RCS messaging activated and I've restarted my phone, etc. Any ideas on how to get this working again? It's definitely a result of the iOS 26 update, which I do NOT recommend.

Group messaging option missing on iPhone 16 Pro Good morning. After reading through many posts on the issue of not receiving and slow sending of group text messages to Android users, I looked at on older iPhone I have and the messaging settings. Old phone has a group text setting, 16 does not. Seems like this should be an easy fix, Apple. I believe others have found this as well. I have been an Apple customer for over 30 years. It would be quite inconvenient for me to switch to Android and Windows now, but if this issue is not fixed soon, I will be seriously considering it. With aging parents and family spread throughout the country, group text messages are a vital tool for daily connections and communications. I would prefer not to have to introduce my mother to a new app, just to accomplish this. See pictures below to illustrate the difference. Top is iPhone 16 Pro. Bottom is older phone running 15.8.4 Seriously, Apple, as others have said, FIX THIS. :)
