Android phone receiving SMS late/out of order from iPhones

Same sitch, it happens off and on. I'm on Android, most of my extended family is on iPhone (except my brother). Our group texts are generally fine, but like 10% of the time these weird things happen where messages are out of order, or don't go through at all.

I think as others have said it's just SMS/MMS vs. iMessage, and until there's any semblance of a unified protocol, this is what we have to deal with.

Mostly it's just a nuisance, but missing picking someone up at the airport because of it one time was not a good thing.

I'm the developer of WalkScape, the RuneScape inspired fitness MMORPG where you progress by walking IRL. We're now accepting more people to the Closed Beta!

I just got my access to the closed beta and fired it up today. Even the initial setup, character customization, story intro, and tutorials are top notch. I feel pretty excited to get this started, more than I’ve felt about a game in awhile. Looking forward to the experience and contributing to the feedback where I can.

Why Everyone Should Still Use an RSS Reader in 2024

I miss Press from TwentyFive Squares. The theme was very e-ink-ish, worked great, felt nice, didn't have any of the annoying garbage that's since become pretty norm for readers.

Still works on older Android OSes, I think. But since Press hasn't updated since 2014, it doesn't have security for new Android, I think.

Wonder if it would work on Graphene or something?
