how do i get my apps to send me verification messages

I just got my iPhone yesterday, brand new, I imported my number from straight talk and now apps like my banking app, Life360, and others don’t send me verification codes through text. Is there a way to fix it?

iPhone 16 Pro Max, iOS 18

You don’t have switched your carrier either, right? Because I’d imagine there could be a problem with that.


anyways, first, try this: go to messages in settings. Toggle off send as text message, then toggle back on, go to MMS messaging, toggle on and off, then RCS messaging, toggle on and off, then restart your iPhone.

if this does not resolve the problem, please contact your carrier.
