text messages to android phone

Hey @Diy dave, if you’re using an iPhone, could you please try this for me?

• 1) Turn off iMessage (Settings > Messages)
• 2) Restart your phone (by pressing and holding the on/off button)
• 3) Tap Settings > Phone > My Number and confirm that it is correct.
• 4) If it is not correct, please enter the correct number
• 5) Turn iMessage back to On (Settings > Messages)
• 6) Finally, go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive and see if the correct number is displayed under "Start new conversations from:"

If it’s an Android device you’re using, just turn the Chat Features setting off and on again, like so:

• On your device, open Messages 
• At the top right, tap Settings
• Tap Chat features
• Toggle 'Enable chat features' to OFF
• Turn the phone off and wait 15 minutes, then power the phone back on
• Toggle ‘Enable chat features’ to ON
• Try to send a message again.

Thank you,

Rory
