iphone android messaging problems

Hello, my iPhone XR runs on boost mobile and is just now starting to have problems with messaging group chats with androids I can some times message group-chats but I can never receive messages from others. I also am having trouble messaging android users separately. I’ve tried powering off my iPhone then turning it back on and turning off/on sms.

iPhone XR, iOS 16

You need to ensure you have SMS/MMS enabled on your iPhone. Go to Settings > Messages > Make sure Send as SMS is turned on. Also MMS Messaging and Group Messaging need to be turned on. If they are all on and you still have issues, you need to contact your carrier directly for help with your account.
