I’m sending an SMS text message to a phone number but the message only comes through as an email to their Gmail account. Is this because it’s an iPhone vs. android issue? What settings can I change to correct this problem. BTW…this ONLY happens with one person, my son, ha!
iPhone 14
Hello!
Please go to the Contacts app, find your son’s contact, and tap on it. Then tap on “message” and you’ll receive the option of texting his email address or phone number. Tap on the phone number and you should be good to go!
Have a great day!

The recipient can have the text-to-mail option enabled at their carrier, as well.
And it;s possible for a sender to change how things work, too.
