iMessage games

Hey there. I want to play iMessage games with my friends (Specifically Game Pigeon). But, every time I send them an invite to a game, it says not delivered. The people I’m sending the invites to are apple users.


Is it because my phone doesn’t see them as apple users? Please help.

That certainly appears to be true, as your screenshot shows a green arrow (instead of blue). Address the message to the recipient’s Apple ID instead of telephone number. Spell out that Apple ID specifically in the “To” field.
