Anyone else having issues sending/receiving picture messages from Iphone to Droid?
Recently switched to Tmobile, another family member got an iphone, I had to get a Galaxy, and now we cannot send or receive picture messages from one another. I went to the store and they said " they were having tower issues" but when I called customer service it showed no issues. They suggested using a different messaging platform… I don't have time for that and my family member barely can use the messaging app let alone another thing to remember.
HELP PLEASE!!
I have had this same issue for a while now whether I'm on the Wi-Fi or not. I have to send a picture to my employer multiple times a day who has android and I have to send it like 10 times before it goes through. This is so annoying.
I'm having this same issue. Anytime I try to send pictures to a family member who has android they constantly fail to go through and I have to try numerous times before the pictures eventually go through.
I’ve been with tmobil and apple techs on the phone for over a week about this problem
of group messaging.
One suggested to change SIM card or do a factory reset.
I changed the Tmobil Sim and it worked for while and then
it crashed.
I am going to call them again.
YES! And it is SERIOUSLY impacting my comedic timing!! 😠
Unfortunately the problem is squarely with Apple and iPhone, yet they say the problem is on TMobile's end. Yet my housemate has Verizon and is having the same problem. iPhone 14's cannot send photos to Android phones 95% of the time. It's totally frustrating when we have both iPhones and Android phones. Low res settings on the iPhone still doesn't work 90% of the time.
If anyone has found a fix let me know. I am tired of arguing with Apple Support
Sorry photos is my problem, not texts. Sorry misread the earlier message.
so your issue is MMS and not SMS.
same issue with group texts by chance?

Honestly you aren't the only one having issues sending pictures or videos. I've been reading a lot about it on and off this forum. I have the same issue, and nothing fixes it.
I was having the same issue on my iPhone 14 Pro Max. Annoying green bar across the top every time I tried to send a photo to anyone on Android in a text message. I went into Settings > Messages and enabled low quality image mode, but that didn't fix it. I then also turned off iMessage, and photos started flowing, and no more green bar. This change does not seem to impact me sending or receiving messages from other iPhone/iMessage users. I think it just switches everything over to SMS/MMS.
I am unable to send or receive any photos on my android phone through text message. I waited until this morning to send any because I supposedly went over my unlimited texting talk and data. I'm annoyed because I tried everything. I'm so angry. This has never happened before.
