Question Delayed SMS messages from iPhone

[berus44]

Hi everyone!

I’m on a device running android go and my carrier is compatible with it. I was used to texting people on my iPhone, and this is a little hurdle of me converting to Android.

When texting my fiancé in the same room, my messages to him sent through immediately, but his messages to me took 15 minutes to deliver. Do you think it’s possibly the fact that his iPhone was attempting to send as an iMessage for the first while and then realized it couldn’t so it finally delivered through sms?

Could it possibly be a result of my carrier or his settings?

Any advice would be amazing!

Make sure both of your devices have RCS chat turned on. Look in your phone's Messages app settings for a feature called "RCS Chat" or just "Chat." Here's how to turn it on for iPhones: https://support.apple.com/en-us/122195
