Can't send iMessage Attachments to Android users I cannot send screenshots, photos, or any other such attachment to someone using an Android device. I can send text (green SMS) to an Android device, but not a 52KB PDF document, for example. This exact question appears in the community forum from 3 years ago without a solution. It's still a problem. Solutions about the iPhone setting for forwarding SMS are not the answer. SMS forwarding is working for plain text. Is there a fix for this specific problem?

You need MMS enabled by your Carrier for the SIM that you use and then enable it in your Settings. See the Pic below

Settings->Messages->scroll down to Send as SMS and make sure it turned on. Also make sure MMS messaging and Group messaging is turned on.
