Why can't I text android users on my iPhone?

I have iMessage on and I can text everyone with an iphone, but not noniphone users. It just says that it's an error sending! I have Wi-Fi on, and turned it off for LTE and still, error. Does anyone know how to fix this? I've restarted my phone so many times!

IMessage is an internet run instant messenger for ios software(only iPhones, Mac, iPad, iPod etc.), technically not texting. Turn off your iMessage in General>Messaging. Now try to send a text message to the other numbers. Your phone should automatically recognize that your recipients are not ios users, so if turning iMessage on and off does not work, I'd go to my service provider.

Because Apple is greedy.

Your iPhone can't handle the awesome superiority of an Android.

I can't find out how to send messages to android users on my iPod. My WI-FI is on and my iMessage is. Does anyone know how to fix this?

  • Why do users of an android have worse quality of posted instagram photos than users of ios? I have an AndroidOne smartphone and I noticed that having posted a photo it has worse quality than the same photo but of the user of an iphone. Does anyone know why? Ia there any explanation?
  • Why do Android users feel the inpulsive need to hate on iPhone? I know I'm generalizing and maybe being stereotypical. But nearly ever single Android user I have met explains to me the cool features and why they have it. When I never even asked for their opinion. They LOVE to tell me why my iPhone is obsolete and doesn't even compare to their mighty Android. I never once asked for anybody's opinion and I have never once bad mouthed an Android. So why do they feel a need to bad mouth my phone?

  • Why can't i receive text messages from iphone users? So i used an iphone before switching over to the galaxy s8. For some reason, i can't receive text messages from people who use an iphone. I still have the iphone i previously used and it gets all the imessages from people but it just doesn't go directly to my galaxy s8. Is there something i have to do to fix this? Do i have to wipe the sim card on the iphone in order to get iphone users texts?
