If you do not want to send as SMS, i.e. never send a text to an Android user, go to settings, messages, and turn off send as SMS. So, you will only be able to send iMessages between Apple device users. If you ever want to send pictures or audio files, you need to still turn on send as MMS.

Her first and last name, and just her 7 and 10 digit phone number. I’m out of ideas. Can any one make a suggestion?
