My (non-tech savvy) friend and I have been having a weird issue where random texts show up like 2 days later. My phone is up-to-date and new and his might never have installed a system update for all I know. (I don’t let him connect to my main WiFi network for a reason.)
I don’t seem to be having this issue with anyone else. I’m on iOS and he’s on Android but a relatively modern Samsung phone. Should I sit him down and update his phone or something or is this a known issue?
Apple is doing insane stuff with iMessage making SMS useless with Android. It is intentional manipulation. I’ve only seen it on some Apple kernels with the latest iPhone. My old man’s phone absolutely will not send or receive an SMS unless I message is manually turned off and then it won’t get iMessages. Apple has always been a shitty company, but this is next level insane. Just get and use the Signal app and ditch all the proprietary garbage and manipulative bs IMO.
