I’m in a family group text with iPhone users and Android users. Texts fail to come through and are sometimes out of order. Why does this happen? I thought MMS was a sort of ISO standard and shouldn’t be a problem

Good question! While letters and emoji symbols are standard, different phone companies have different ways of sending them to eachother.
Every phone company plays sports. Apple is really good at throwing baseballs. They’ve practiced it a bunch and everyone wears a catchers mitt.
Android can throw a football like nobodies business. Their form is perfect, and when two androids play catch, its football or nothing!
Now imagine you throw a football to someone who has *only ever caught baseballs*. They might drop it a couple times and fumble around a bit. Your family group chat is essentially different sports players trying to figure out how to catch different balls!
