4005: Recipient does not support this message type

The recipient cannot receive this message type.

HTTP status: 422.

The recipient cannot receive this message type. iMessage app messages require the recipient to be reachable over iMessage and do not fall back to SMS/RCS. This is an HTTP 422 error, delivered asynchronously as a message.failed webhook.

  • Confirm the recipient is iMessage-capable before sending app messages — see the iMessage capability check
  • Or send a standard text or media message, which can fall back to SMS/RCS
