I have an iPhone and my mom has an android it’s always been this way. We’ve always been able to text message each other until yesterday. My mom cannot receive my messages anymore. What would cause this to happen? I’ve tried everything that has been suggested turning off iMessages and turning on SMS, I have rebooted the phone. I have not blocked her nor has she blocked me. powered off and back on, and everything that has been said to do I have done but nothing is working. And it is only between me and my mom because my brother has an iPhone and she can receive his messages , she just can’t receive mine. A little frustrating so any advice would be appreciated. Thank you.

you'll need to contact your phone carrier and let them know, SMS is their feature.
