In order for messages to work much better with iPhones you have to use Google Messages!

This way RCS to RCS is handled by Google and Apple. They go through Google and Apple servers.

Samsung messages with RCS support is carrier dependent. Most carriers do not support it.

It could be that your carrier dropped support for RCS.

Who is your carrier?

I am having an issue where some messages are not being received in the group message. They will come in a separate message directly from a person and not load what ever it was. I have done everything. 2 chats with att techs. One said new phone, one said it's Google messages and the store tells me is not att and it's a bad samsung update. no one can fix the issue. I have done even a full reset of the S23 and changed to an eSim. Nothing works.
