The text messages aren’t actually immobilised.

No, but there MMS function is immobilised so won't send as MMS when the texts convert due to going over 480 characters.

I assume it’s a different mms system for android rather than iOS or is it the same

Same system but if you have disabled MMS in settings they won't send.
