Why Isn't My Wife Getting My Texts Anymore?

I noticed that my wife stopped receiving my texts today, even though everything else seems to be working perfectly. I can call her and use WhatsApp without any issues. She receives texts from others, and I can also receive her messages. We're on different carriersโ€”she has an iPhone, and I'm using a Samsung Galaxy. I've tried all the usual troubleshooting steps like rebooting both phones, checking for updates, making sure I'm not blocked on her phone, and adjusting settings in our messaging apps. My texts appear to send normally on my end, so I'm really confused about what's going on. Any ideas? This was all fine just yesterday!

Did you recently switch from an iPhone to the Samsung? Sometimes iMessage can play tricks after switching unless it's fully disabled before trading the iPhone in. Just a thought!

Can she still text other Android users? Also, double-check if you accidentally blocked each otherโ€™s numbers in your messaging apps. It's worth checking her blocked list since that might not affect calls but could disrupt texts.

wide ruled: She can text other Androids just fine, and I checked her blocked listโ€”my number's definitely not on there.
