IMessage confusion mixed texts?
I'm really confused on what is happening with my iPhone 5 and iMessage. I would send a string of messages to my friend, and it never says delivered. Then after a while if i leave the app and come back it says that the messages were all sent as regular texts then I'm unable to use imessage. BUT once either my friend texts me, or i delete the entire conversation, it will reset back to imessage. On top of that, the messages that send as text messages my friend receives in a mixed up order…
Question 1: Are other people able to send him iMessages just fine to the same contact number?
Question 2: Are you able to send other people iMessages without any problem?
That will tell you where the problem lies. I'm guessing he has some iMessage account associated with his phone number but it's not working for him so it tries to send them all later as SMS. You might be able to disable that option somewhere in settings. Also you can try sending iMessages to his email address associated with his Apple ID instead of his phone number.
If the problem persists, text him on FaceBook or Hangouts or Skype or some other platform.
- When Android user sends text to a mixed group of iPhone and Android users? A family member who is an Android user sent a text message to a large group of recipients, including me. The group has both Android users and iPhone users. I'm an iPhone user. Does this mean that I will receive everyone else s messages like an iMessage group, or will all messages go directly between the conversation starter and whoever is messaging him, without any of the other group members seeing what the other members said?
