Delay in receiving MMS/group text messages

A

AC Question

Hello fellow users. I've been experiencing this problem for some time now (I saw other posts that touched on this but did not find an answer). For a while now, whenever I receive group messages (especially with folks with iPhones), it sometimes lags in downloading the messages. I've tried different SMS apps but they all have the same issue. Any help would be most appreciated.

Depending on the texting app you are using, you may be able to see the sent and received times.

My guess based on no data is that the relay from iMessage to SMS on Apple's side is taking far longer than it should be taking. If this is the case, check with your iPhone users and see if they have your contact info flagged as "not iPhone".
