iPhone X does not send SMS: This may be the reason

If your iPhone X no longer sends SMS, the cause can usually be fixed quickly. Test all the suggested solutions one after the other. If you still have problems sending SMS after that, contact Apple Support for advice.

What to do if the iPhone doesn't send SMS?

If you have problems sending SMS, restarting the smartphone is often enough. If that does not help, some other causes come into question, which you can check one after the other.

How to fix the problem

1. Turn your iPhone X off and on again.
2. If the device no longer responds, force a restart. To do this, quickly press the volume up button and then the volume down button in succession. Then press and hold the side button until the device turns off and release.
3. Try to make a call as a test. This will help you find out whether there is a fundamental problem with your SIM card or your mobile provider.
4. If you have a prepaid card, check whether you still have enough credit.
5. Change the location to leave a possible wireless hole.
6. If all else fails, you can create a backup of your data and then reset the iPhone X to factory settings. Dabei sollten eventuelle Software-Probleme behoben werden.
