There was an IOS update for newer phones recently that changed messaging from SMS to RCS which is supposed to be more (or less not sure) secure. This change however prevents iPhone users from sending texts to phones that do not have RCS. There was a lot about this in the news recently. One of my neighbors had this problem and had to call support for instructions on how to disable RCS. Hopefully they will work it out soon.
