Discovered a frustrating macOS 26.5.1 in iMessages. While I can send and receive SMS and RCS messages to Android users on my iPhone, I can only receive them on a Mac or iPad. I’m not alone in this as I’ve seen several reports. Most point to the same timing of the bug appearing after macOS 26.5.1 was released, although some as early as 26.5. There is talk of it being possibly corrected in 26.6. Given all the attention and focus on the OS 27 releases, here’s hoping that’s correct and 26.6 rolls out soon. Because I’ve tried all of the usual and recommended steps to try and correct the issue to no avail. The issue also seems to fall in that small minority of users circle of hell. I’ll write more as I discover more on this. But I guess since I only discovered this today, it tells me how few messages I’ve exchanged with Android users of late. Thanks for reading.
