Hi there, aceflipper91!

Thanks for reaching out via the Apple Support Communities regarding your SMS text issue. I'm understanding that when you try to send an SMS text, you receive a Not Delivered notification for every one, even though you are able to send SMS on an Android device. I use SMS text daily and know how important it is for it to work, so I definitely want to help get this sorted out for you!

There are a few steps I can recommend taking to get started. First, restart your iPhone if you have not already done so. You can get instructions on how to do that here: Restart your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

After you restart your iPhone, try to send an SMS text. If it still won't go through, try the steps under the "Try these steps first" section of this article: If you can‘t send or receive messages on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

If you still need some help after going through these steps, please don't hesitate to respond back. When you do, please let me know if you're using he same SIM card/phone number in the Android phone as you are using on the iPhone to send SMS text messages.


Cheers!
