Is anyone else on iOS 10 having any issues when trying to send a picture through text? Every picture I try to send gives me a "message failed" message.
 
Using iMessage or actually MMS (not going through iMessage)?

yup out of the blue this started happening, ended up downgrading to 9.3.3 beta 4 while I wait for ios 10 beta 2 to fix this (hopefully). Bummer.
 
I disabled and re-enabled iMessage on my iPP (someone borrowed it) and couldn't send an iMessage for a full day, even though it appeared to be re-activated, but before and after that I've had no issues on phone or iPad.
 
Bump. Happening to me too... Also people can't send me messages as iMessage MMS, said he had to try as text message and it went through.
 
I haven't tried sending anything today but probably yesterday or the day before I sent several to two different people through iMessage that are definitely not on any Beta version.
 
Haven't had an issue (yet) with people sending me pictures but I have definitely been plagued with the 'mms won't send' bug. It's beta. Oh well. I knew the risks. :).
 
It has to be service related the beta. Apple didnt just set iMessage to stop working in the beta on 6/29/16.

Clearly there is some issue with the servers somewhere
 
I went back to ios 9.3.3 yesterday because of the MMS issue with iMessage. I read it got fixed, so I reinstalled ios 10 beta 1 this morning. The MMS issue IS fixed, but for some reason, this new reinstall of ios 10 beta is buggier than ever. The text messages have the wrong names and pictures, there's a delay when unlocking the phone and the wallpaper appears like 1 second later, it's just a messy install.

It's unfortunate because my previous install of ios 10 beta was smooth as butter and bug-free. I'm gonna have to reset all settings and I really don't want to. So I'm hoping beta 2 comes out today otherwise I am seriously done and going back to 9.3 and calling it a day.
