Here's a few things to try. First, go into Settings -> Apps -> Messages and check out the SMS, iMsg and RCS settings there. I'm not sure what combination works, but look for the obvious and then use some trial and error if necessary.
Next, check out your contact and change the type of the phone number you're using to iPhone. Not sure any of this will work, but it's worth taking a look at, at least IMHO. -- Christopher (AKA CJ) =>รท Chaltain at Outlook, USA -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Ann Byrne Sent: Tuesday, October 22, 2024 9:46 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Texting with SMS, RCS, iMessage On my iPhone with IOS 18 I want to send a message with SMS, but when I type in the address it says RCS and the message won't send. Sometimes when I type the contact name the message is directed to SMS when it should go to iMessage. How can I control the way it is sent???
