Android texts missing or not syncing with MacBook Air since recent Apple updates

Is anyone else having trouble sending and receiving messages from Android users since the recent Apple updates?

I’m experiencing several issues:

• Some texts from Android users never reach me at all.
• Other Android messages appear on my iPhone but do not sync to my MacBook Air.
• I cannot send texts to any Android users from my MacBook Air, although I can send them from my iPhone.

I’ve spent days troubleshooting and checking the syncing settings. Despite everything appearing to be synced, messages with Android users still aren’t working consistently across my devices.

I typically use my MacBook for texting and rarely use my phone for it, so this has become extremely frustrating. I’ve missed appointment-related messages and an urgent message from a friend. This is affecting more than convenience—I need to be able to rely on my messages arriving.

Has anyone experienced the same problems after updating? If you found a solution, please share what worked. I’d also appreciate knowing whether others are seeing this even after completing the usual troubleshooting steps.

Thank you!
