First off, I loathe at&t. Never use them. Verizon was far superior.
Anyway, I’m now having an issue where if I send any web links they get blocked over SMS, especially to iPhone users. Very very annoying.
Not to mention group SMS/MMS being garbage now. I am not sure if it has to do with me using an esim for at&t or what. They wanted to force me into a new phone and I said no because I’ll be going with a pixel and graphene after this contract is up.
Anyone else have these issues? Also their WiFi calling is garbage, not that I need it anyway.
Been on AT&T for five years and I have not had any problems like that.
I’m on Android also.
My suggestion would be to consider resetting your phone or at least finding some way to reset your settings.
You may not have your SMS or MMS settings set correctly.
If you’re on Android you could also try switching over to a different text app, like Textra.
The pro version of Textra is a couple of dollars, but I find it far superior to Google messages in every way except for the whatever RMS or IMCP or whatever the new media texting thing is for Apple compatibility.
Yeah ive been using fossify messages, but it wasnt working with Samsung messages either. Hmm. I read that at&t network itself blocks link sending so not sure what I can do
Textra twins!
I love how it remembers your custom notification sound per contact. Even with system changes on phone.
Messages only keeps a custom sound per text thread. If you delete a conversation, you have to reset the sound.
My favorite part of it is that if you set it to do so, it will automatically download any images your friends or girlfriends send to you so that you can save it as a separate file.
Good feature. I tend to pick & review before saving.
